Why some few UFBU leaders desperately trying to spoil the future of lakhs of Clerk, Substaff and Officers of Public Sector Banks by colluding with IBA?

It is time to come out of our differences as Officers and Workmen and unite together to take a tough yet bold decision to decide our future…

Let us not allow the decade old leaders to spoil our future…

The IBA-UFBU wage Talks has become a big Drama drafted by some UFBU leaders in collusion with IBA and Govt. The OCT 12 talks is yet another series of the Drama…

From the prolonged delay in the Wage talks the agenda of some of the leaders is getting exposed..…and they have also lost their guts and courage to call for Strike neither to demand Salary nor to Stop Mergers…

At this juncture, very important development is….

Two Historic writ petitions (W.P.(MD) No.21195 of 2018 & W.P.(MD) No.19947 of 2018) have been filed at Madurai bench of Madras High Court one by Com Dhanasekar and another by Canara Bank OBC Welfare Association to direct the IBA to implement minimum starting pay of Group C employees in Central Govt to the Workmen (Clerk & Sub staff) and Group A salary to JMGS I officers based on the Creamy Layer Notification issued by Department of Financial Services dated 06.12.2017 which states that

“JMGS I of PSBs will be treated as equivalent to Group A in Govt of India”

&

Clerks & Peons in PSBs will be treated as equivalent to Group C in Govt of India”

Without bringing parity in the salary and perks implementation of this notification is not possible hence the Writ petitions were filed. Once implemented, the cadre wise salary and perks will be same for all bankers irrespective of the category.

The said Notification was sent to the CEOs of all PSBs and the Chairman of IBA on 06.12.2017 itself. All the UFBU leaders were also aware of this notification.

But, when the DFS notification says that workmen and officers of PSBs are equivalent to the Group C and Group A employees of Central govt respectively, who is IBA to stop that? Why some UFBU leaders also trying to stop that?

The Hon’ble Court also kindly considered our demand as genuine and sent notices to IBA and DFS to submit their reply. If the IBA implement the direction of the Hon’ble Court if comes in our favour, then the bankers starting Basic Pay will be as follows.

Cadre 7th Pay Commission 10th Bi-Partite

Sub Staff 18000 9560

Workmen 35400 11765

Officers 56100 23700

If the UFBU Leaders are sincere in their efforts to achieve Wages equivalent to Central govt Staffs then they should have pressurized the IBA to implement the Notification of Department of Financial Services dated 06.12.2017. But they have not done so. This shows their agenda is entirely different and certainly not in favour of us…

Whether they are going to get us more than the salary of Central Govt Staffs through Bipartite?

The circular issued by Com Bandlish, UFBU Convenor on 13.10.18 speaks follows…

“1. IBA’s earlier offer of 6% should be substantially improved upon to work out a mutually acceptable wage accord. “

Why UFBU leaders should beg like this? and why the convenor should issue circular for begging? …when we have DFS notification and Judiciary in our support…

The UFBU convenor Com Bandlish should have issued the circular as follows…

“IBA should implement the Minimum basic pay of Group C Employees of Govt of India to Clerks and Substaffs, Minimum basic pay of Group A officers of Govt of India to JMGS-I officers as per DFS notification dated 06.12.2017”

But he did not….This shows they are not willing to demand Wages on parity with Central Govt employees.

The Charter of demands submitted by four officer organizations demanded the parity with Central Govt officers. Then how Com Bandlish was allowed by the leaders of those UFBU affiliates to issue such circular against their original demands?

It is learnt that IBA is going to submit a reply to the Hon’ble court that The Implementation of the DFS Order dated 06.12.2017 is not possible as the bankers wages are decided through Bipartite. Shocking point is some of the veteran UFBU leaders may also support the IBA stand…

To put it in Simple terms…

UFBU Leaders may give their consent to IBA that they will not demand implementation of DFS notification for Salary in parity with Central Govt Staffs.

When Govt notification supports our demands…When Judiciary considering our demands…Why some few UFBU leaders desperately trying to spoil the future of lakhs of Clerk, Substaff and Officers of Public Sector Banks by colluding with IBA?

We, 10 Lakh bankers should unite now and demand our leaders not to give consent to IBA either directly or indirectly against Court Notice.

Immediately after receiving this email/communication please share with your local, regional and national leaders of all 9 UFBU affiliates comprising both workmen and Officers and pressurize them not to beg on percentage concept but to demand Salary in parity with Central Govt employees.

Every single minute is important from now onwards comrades…

The Govt/RBI/IBA suck our blood for the pity salary…..Hence it is time to stand up and say…We are not salves anymore and we deserve more Wages equivalent to Central Govt Salary..

Go ahead and bombard the mailboxes and whatsapp of your respective leaders to support the Writ petitions (W.P.(MD) No.21195 of 2018 & W.P.(MD) No.19947 of 2018) to implement minimum starting pay of Group C employees in Central Govt to the Workmen (Clerk & Sub staff) and Group A salary to JMGS I officers based on the Creamy Layer Notification issued by Department of Financial Services dated 06.12.2017 which states that

“JMGS I of PSBs will be treated as equivalent to Group A in Govt of India”

&

Clerks & Peons in PSBs will be treated as equivalent to Group C in Govt of India”
I have attached the DFS notification and contact person to join the writ along with this email.

Go ahead comrades…

Bankers need to reject UFBU forthwith. Stop making payments of subscriptions to Unions and Associations. Make it clear to IBA and the Govt. that bankers will never accept any settlement on pay revision signed by UFBU. If the Govt. is not ready for constitution of a separate Pay Revision Committee for bankers, Bankers should immediately approach the Honourable Supreme Court of India for it so that a reasonable pay revision is awarded for the bankers which should be equal to other profit making industrial sectors. If 400% or 500% hike is not possible for the banking sector to come at par with other industrial sectors, the bankers should never accept any hike which is less than 100%. Having seen the operating profit of the banking sector for the previous financial year, it can easily revise pay for its employees with 100% hike.

Bankers should say #WETOO need justice against pathetic speed of bps and bad performance of both negotiating committee's
