The Bankingstrike is a great example of the unions scoring an own goal. Why should South African and international companies invest in creating jobs in SA when computers don’t strike? Employees need to add value to companies and to the economy. Employment isn’t charity.

ATMs and online banking / swiping a card is digital and does not require a person to process. So if these services will unavailable on Friday, it simply will be a criminal act of sabotage! A human being must disrupt the digital set up for it to be unavailable... just saying!

South Africans pissing in the wind. Digitisation isn't knocking on the door. It kicked down the door long ago, as long ago as the introduction of the ATM. Resistance is futile.

Just keep f****** up South Africa 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Shame they will learn hardway about unions next they will be signing deal with banks ordinary workers left in the corner Capitec is not retrenching so what is story there

Is it me or we're useless vele for working at this three entities: Taxi Rank, Government n Banking? Like STANDARD will hold my money until they feel now m ready to use it

And if they can strike for the coming week .will they be throwing money in streets ,keep us posted

By calling this strike, esp from a ruthless industry, are you not further entrenching the need for digitization? Bank employees, after benefiting from a ruthless industry, what makes you think the industry won't treat you the way it does it's clients?
