Labour unions are dismayed that StandardBankZA plans to close down 91 branches across the country, resulting in 1 200 people losing their jobs.

JOHANNESBURG – Labour unions have reacted to news that Standard Bank plans to close down 91 branches across the country, resulting in 1 200 people losing their jobs.

“What is happening in the bank right now is of serious concern given our country’s high unemployment rate. Any job losses based on operational requirements will inadvertently suppress the sustainability and growth of our economy and this we cannot afford,” says Ebersohn. Standard Bank said the shift in customer behaviour meant that its clients were using its branches less.
