The 5th round of Wage talks on 11-10-2013 was held at IBA Office , WTC Cuffe Parade, Mumbai.The IBA team was headed by Sri R K Dubey , Chairman Core Group under Negotiating Committee , Sri Balakrishna V Chabubal DMD of State Bank of India, Sri S K Das, ED Bank of Baroda, Sri Rakesh K Sethi , ED PNB, Sri K Unnikrishnan, DY CEO, IBA besides the IBA Officers associated with the back up team. Eleven Unions’ representatives were present in the discussions.
2. Preceded by this meeting , was the meeting of 9 unions at the Office of All India State Bank of India Staff Federation, 2nd Floor State Bank of India H Q Nariman Point Mumbai to draw the collective and cohesive plan of presentation of views of all the participants. The issues taken up for discussion were
a) Hospitalisation Scheme IBA Proposal,
b) Compassionate ground appointment Status
c) Uniform holidays cheque truncation system (CTS)
d) Wage Load ,
e) Expeditious conclusion of talks
f) Increase in the number of participants in the negotiation
g) Change in the D A Pattern - Index and also monthly payment of
per point rise
h) keeping the superannuation cost outside the wage calculation etc
i) Officers’ Unions’ demand of negotiating for all the officers up to scale VII instead of upto scale III as proposed by IBA and
j) 5days a week.
3. As per the practice of IBA, the meeting was used to be held in three sessions i.e. one common session with all the eleven unions, one exclusive session with Officers unions’ and the next one with workmen unions’ with a lunch break. But this time it was clubbed to only one session spreading over a period 120 minutes from 12.15 hours.
4. IBA side was more keen to have a dialogue reinitiated on hospitalisation scheme along with the response to the clarifications sought by the unions and also to draw up the components for filling up the “wage basket” for proceeding further in the wage talks.
5 Since the entire exercise was more of sharing informations and viewpoints from both the sides, with no conclusive decision on issues raised by us with particular reference to wage load in the background of external developments taking place like appointment of 7th pay commission ahead of the commencement day ie 1 1 2016 and the Port and Dock workers issues getting underway, it was felt necessary that the participating unions are forced to the wall to pursue the path of agitation as “ united struggles can alone provide the progress in the matter”.
6. Assessing the mood and the restiveness of the rank and file , it was decided by the 9 Unions to hold a demonstration on the Tuesday, the 22-10-2013 at all the State Capitals and Major centres with a single point agenda of“Expeditious wage settlement”.
7. AIBOA, directs all State Committees and affiliated units to participate in the demonstration to be held on 22-10-2013 (Tuesday) throughout the country and make it a grand success.
With greetings
Yours comradely
/S NAGARAJAN/
GENERAL SECRETARY
