Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by temmytanny(m): 9:24am On Sep 08, 2009 |
am begining to get worried over SANUSI's actions More banks are sacking their workers as they struggle to adapt to the new corporate governance instituted by the Central Bank of Nigeria in its move to clean up the industry. http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/Money/Business/5456600-146/story.csp |

People should not sleep with their two eyes closed because unemployment will lead to more cases of robbery. |

Why are they sacking the workers? Are they responsible for the non performing loans running the banks down? |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by floriana(m): 12:40pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
My sister works there o. Can somebody re-assure me she will not be affected? |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by thithi(f): 1:10pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
knight4u: There is something called recession out there and Nigeria is not immune to it. temmytanny: Without his action, the bank might have collapsed and more would be out of job, it is called restructuring. Oluschenco: That is true, however, anyone that resulted into robbery cos of losing his/her job, must have always been a robber before, just never used the skill with guns. eunisam: Sack is cos they need to restructure and they need to tight their wallet, cos time of free money is over. They now realize that some of the expectations on the marketers are insane. Some of the people losing their jobs in Nigeria has always been unemployed"ly" employed, or how do u explain someone that has job and cant provide for his/her family, or those that dont even get paid for months? |

Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by Marymos: 2:28pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
This one is just wickedness and transfer of aggression.Is it the innocent bankers that said that none performing loan should be given out?People can no longer hear word again becos of economic meltdown.For more than twenty years now they have been economic meltdown in Nigeria.Just becos America started crying economic meltdown the whole world started shouting economic meltdown.God will comfort all those that are affected.I really feel for them. |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by Utaroz(m): 2:47pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
I wonder at the total staff strenght of Wema Bank, if 500 can be dropped in one swoop! If the number is correct, how will this impact on service delivery? The most worrisome concern is whether there is a buffer for the affected "victims" in terms of meaningful severance packages, |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by rickie4us(m): 2:49pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
Utaroz: I wonder |

This is very bad, Although We know the economic recession just kicked off last year in some advanced countries. The government of these countries are making efforts to cushion the effects, These countries are better off before the recession period, But Nigeria has been in economic recession since the 90's, So trying to worsen the situation bcoz of the so called global problem is not acceptable, The employment rate in Nigeria has not been good since I can remember, Why should we allow it to get worse. This whole financial problem in the country is some kind of set up to further impoverished the already poor and average nigerians. I thought the government said they had pump in some bailout fund to the financial industry, Why these alarming loss of jobs, ? There is more to it than met the eyes, I rest. |

bad |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by tainot2002(m): 4:34pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
Will that be the best decision to curb this problem?Why can they slash their workers' salary to reduce cost rather than laying off workers.It has said that when two elephant fights,it's grass that will suffer the conquency.God help us in this country o. |

Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by sayso: 5:50pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
when ignorances is the norm among people that are making decision for this nation,this is what happens,will they make alternative for these people,families.America bail out funds are for the workers,so that their jobs will be save while the company battles for survival.Ours is to sack workers while the chiefs/MDs still the bailout money.God is watching us |

floriana:Don't worry about that I would speak to the appropriate authorities to make sure your sister is not affected by the mass sack. LWKMD! |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by naijatoday: 6:54pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
sayso: In America companies that received bailout are still firing people till today as we speak. Even with the bailout banks 80+ banks have failed and they are already predicting it could reach 100. Let be honest with ourselves, the economic situation has forced a lot of companies around the world to restructure and cutcost. Even banks and companies that did not receive bailout out are cutting jobs. Unfortunately in Nigeria the situation is worse, because the economy has been bad before now. In Nigeria before the Sanusi firing, banks were already slashing workers salary and firing people behind close door, the difference now is that it is getting newspaper attention. And most banks did not want to come out and say they were firing becasue it would have been a sign all is not well with the bank and now the CBN has come out and said the truth. |

another failing of sls bank reforms. |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by Chizua(m): 7:41pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
Gentlemen, we are yet to see the effect of our new "Sanusisation Theory". "a good decision at the wrong time". Credit facilities has been frozen by banks. Oil companies cannot have access to loan and cannot import or execute contracts. Companies are begining to wind up, Naira continues to depreciating on weekly basis against Dollar. It is bad. Sanusi is good guy with right solution; but at the wrong time. He is "Intelligent without wisdom" |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by GeorgeD1(m): 8:06pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
but you're already seeing the effect unfolding before your very eyes! |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by lekantunji: 8:11pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
I think the sack is an eye opener to more rightsizing exercise that will take place in the Banking Industry. Bankers donot really have job security May God help us oooooooooooooooooo |
Re: Wema Banks Sack 500 Workers by sammuella(m): 9:36pm On Sep 08, 2009 |
Can anyone tell me d criterion for laying off a worker. Or is this an avenue for superiors 2 settle scores with surbordinates they consider enemies? , The fear of death is worse than death itself! |
