Employees of CBS bank in Kerala to stage a three day strike from Wednesday

Demanding wage revision and halting anti-labour policy, employees of the Kerala-based CSB Bank will stage a three-day strike from Wednesday, said a top leader of the All India Bank Employees' Association (AIBEA).

"The CSB Bank had told its unions that it would implement the wage agreement concluded between Indian Banks' Association (IBA) and the unions. But it did not give its consent to IBA to negotiate with unions on its behalf.

"The industry wide wage revision agreement was signed sometime back but was not implemented in CSB Bank," C.H. Venkatachalam, General Secretary, AIBEA told IANS.

Adding further he said if the CSB Bank management does not implement the industry-wide wage agreement in the bank, then AIBEA will have to take up the issue on an industry-wide basis.

The CSB Bank has over 400 branches and over 1.5 million customers.
