Breaking: Access Bank sacks over 300 staff
One of the major commercial banks in the country, Access Bank, has reportedly sacked over 300 staff across its branches in Nigeria.
It was gathered that most of the affected workers were contract staff, who had put in a good number of years in the organisation.
A source, who craved anonymity, said the bank has been
using electronic means of communication (e-mail) to notify the affected bankers.
On the number of staff affected, the source said it was difficult to know, as the bank ensured the sack notices were not dispatched at the same time.
Attempts by PlatinumPost correspondent to get the response of the bank on the alleged sack has not yielded any result as the mail sent to the financial organisation is yet to be attended to as at the time of filing this report.
PlatinumPost reports that another commercial bank in the country had in August 2021 sacked over 200 junior staff who had spent up to 10 years in the organisation.
The moves by banks to disengage workers, experts say will further compound the nation’s unemployment woes.
