CORDIALLY ACCEPTED
BANK OFFICERS’ GESTURE The banks have cordially accepted the offer by the bank officers 'organisation for members of their staffs to work an extra four hours a week as a gesture towards the country’s war effort, should longer hours be required. It was stated in Wellington this week by a bank officer that the offer had emanated from the New Zealand Bank Officers’ Union, not from the Bank Officers’ Guild. Members-of the union worked under an award to an 80-hour fortnight. To help out staffing problems the union suggested work up to 44 hours in a week as and when rush periods of work called for an extra effort. No overtime for any additional hours up to Ihe four specified was sought.
