By Sumit Kumar   --------On the eve of negotiations between UFBU and IBA....
Reposting my Expectation from 10th BPS/UFBU

1. Renegotiation of merger date of DA with Basic and the same should be fixed at 01.11.2012 
2. At least 50% hike.
3. Implementation of 5 day week.
4. Payment of overtime to officers up to scale MMGS-III.
5. Abolition of the NPS system and reintroduction of assured Pension (including family pension) and EPF for the entire bankers working population

Our Govt. and society expects us to take care of our parents irrespective of the earnings of the parents in backdrop of the same 
****************
7. Inclusion of dependent parents irrespective of their (parents) earning for hospitalization, LFC, etc
****************
8. Removal of combination of 1 home LFC and 1 LFC for anywhere in India in a block of 4 years instead provide all employees two LFC for anywhere in India. In addition all employees (for employee only and no dependants) should be paid fare for travel to their home town for people posted outside their hometown
9. Adequate Recruitments in Banks to back fill all vacant positions in the bank before proceeding with bank expansion and also to provision employees for bank expansion at the time of recruitment
10. Increase the quantum of gratuity
11. Bringing in uniformity in payment of salary and perks to employees across all banks (which includes RBI, SBI and other PSU Banks)
12. Regularization and strict implementation of customer dealing hours through the use of technology (something like what we have in Railway reservation system where you cannot book ticket at the booking counter before and after specific working hours)
13. Abolition of service bond system for new recruits across all the banks. Retention of new employees should be by favorable work environment and not under pressure of any bond.
14. Provision for officers flat within 5 km from place of posting failing which any of the below as per officers choice

c. In case officer do not want to live in officers flat HRA at the rate of 30% of Basic Pay to be paid to the employees.
15. Ensure timeline for implementation of 11th BPS is also incorporated in 10th BPS so that 11th BPS is implemented from the date it becomes due i.e. 01.11.2017.
16. Additional perks be paid to the banks employees for performing Govt. jobs like

As expressed by our Colleague Mr.Pannavalan

Day by day, we are sinking to the bottom of the society.

3. A Carpenter demands a minimum wage of Rs.2,500 per day (12 Hours).
4. An autorickshaw driver in a metro expects a minimum net earning of Rs.2,500 at the end of each day.
5. A Barber in a city who owns a small Saloon earns Rs.2,000 per day.
6. A Gents Tailor in a city earns a minimum of Rs.3,000 per day, if he works for 12 hours.
7. A launderer who only irons clothes gets Rs.600 per day which comprises of only 8 hours.
8. A Tea Shop owner earns a net profit of Rs.500 to Rs.3,000 per day.
9. A paanwala earns a minimum of Rs.1,500 per day.
10.A beggar in a suburban train earns Rs.1,000 per day on an average (His collection per day varies from Rs.500 to Rs.3,000).

Compare yourselves, my dear banker, with all of them. Where do you stand?

How many years you have studied? How many languages you have learnt? How many qualifications you have acquired? How many places you have gone on (management) transfer through the length and breadth of the country? How many training programs you have undergone? How many people you have trained and groomed?

How much of stress you undergo each day? How many risks you bear?

Were you able to enjoy the every sweet and interesting moment of your child(ren)? Did you find time to spend nice evenings with your spouse (when you were young)?

How many friends whom you have lost in touch with? How many festivals you have missed? How much displeasure you have earned from all your relatives, as you could not visit them at the critical moments of their life?

How many books you could not read? How many movies your could not see? How many interests and hobbies you could not pursue?

How many petty things you have lost in life? Are you able to see the orange Sun rising in the east or red Sun setting in the west? Are you able to enjoy the reflected rays of the Moon in the sea/river/ pond?

Your whole life has been wasted for your organisation. But in return, what did you get?"PEANUTS"
