5 Days Working in Bank: Nowadays, the trend of 5 Days Working is going on in many offices. Now 5 working days are expected to start in the government and private banks of the country as well. After the recent agreement between the Indian Banks Association (IBA) and the employee unions, its hope has increased. Let us know what will be the new working schedule of the bank.
5 Days working in Bank: Bank employees were demanding 5 working days for a long time. Till now the government has not approved this demand of the employees, but it is expected that by the end of this year the government can fulfill this demand. Actually, recently an agreement has been reached between the Indian Banks Association (IBA) and the employee unions. Now only the government is waiting for the approval.
If the approval is received from the government, then the banks will open only five days a week. This means that the banks will be closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Let us tell you that right now the banks are closed on the second-fourth Saturday of every month and every Sunday. Apart from this, there is a holiday in the banks of many cities due to the festival.
RBI’s important role along with the government
The government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) have an important role in the approval of the bank’s 5 working days. Actually, this proposal of the bank will go to the RBI because RBI controls all the work related to the bank. The government will approve the proposal only after getting approval from the RBI.
The working time of the bank will also change
According to media reports, if the bank gets approval for 5 working days, then there will be a change in the working time of the bank. It is believed that there may be an increase of 40 minutes in the daily working hours. This means that the bank will be open from 9.45 am to 5.30 pm. Currently banks are open from 10 am to 5 pm.
Bank open timing – 9.45 am
Bank close timing – 5.30 pm
When will the notification come
It is expected that the notification may be issued by the government by the end of the year or early 2025. If approval is received from the government, then Saturday can be recognised as a holiday under the Negotiable Instruments Act.
