I think it is time that government of CHANGE / GMB do something about this Banks Exploitation. Every year they declare billions of naira has profit. All this billion is at the expense of helpless Nigerian youths. Our government should protect the youths. The no of helpless destiny these banks destroyed yearly through their exploitation should better imagine. Many young people with good job or small businesses that took loan from these Banks are now leaving in penury because of their greed. ( they give loan to young business owner without proper explanation, rope you in and you start working for them) YOUTHS Please and please if you start a new business with prospect never approach Nigeria Banks, rather grow your business gradually. YOUTHS Please if you get a good job do not take bank loan otherwise they will enslave you, build your house gradually, buy the car your savings can afford and safe to start business. YOUTH Please if you secure contract job with Nigeria Bank do not be happy, just see it as a stepping stone, save your money to start business and DROP THEM before they DROP U. GMB please help Banks are killing Nigeria Youths.!!!! GMB PLEASE START A YOUTH BANK LIKE IBB'S PEOPLES BANK WHERE YOUTHS AND CIVIL SERVANTS CAN SECURE SOFT LOAN AT 5% WITHOUT ANY HIDDEN CHARGES. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Nigerians like doing things the wrong way . A contract job is that where you are employed for a specific job,at a specific rate for a specific time period . All the condition of service would usually be spelt out in the contract papers . As a contractor the hiring manager is not bound to pay you holiday allowance, sick leave allowance, pension contribution ,insurance etc . In view of the conditions have stated above ,in Europe (which I know of ) and probably in the U.S and other civilised world with good labour laws you will find out that at every point in time contractors usually earn more than permanent staff because the hirer is not liable to pay any future or immediate benefit usually paid to permanent employee. So most times you will find out that while a permanent staff may be on a £36,000 per annum job a contractor could be hired for that similar job in the same office and would be paid ; let's say £400 a day but the contract could be for just 6months or 12 months with a probable extension and when its not extended or when the projects ends the contractor would have to leave and look for another contract elsewhere. As a contractor you are more like a business man , so at every point in time you have to be a fast thinker and very calculative , you need to make good use of whatever you're earning , investing your income wisely ,saving for the raining day , have a back up and always looking for other job openings that may likely pay better or with longer contracting period. In Nigeria, its however a big shame when I see contractors been treated like slaves . They are poorly paid despite the fact that they are excluded from every other benefits . Its all wrong ....and the government would need to do something very fast . 12 Likes 1 Share |

Maybe the meaning of contract staff needs to be defined again.Every contract staff knew what he/she was getting into as regards job security before taking up the offer.In Nigeria,many a times we accept jobs due to frustration and fear of the unknown or tomorrow and when reality sets in,we begin to complain as if we were never aware of these things. 4 Likes |

kennygee: You were gainfully employed with an organisation and took up employment with another during your annual leave. This is no different from the complaint by the Op, just that it is the employee. Op and others Contract staffing is contract staffing. You can't expect the terms of full employment. Everyone is busy sending CV and going for interviews on the time of the employer, but don't want the employer to take decisions that favours it. Well I don't know the ToE by FBN and/or Whyt..., But I am sure there's a little clause in there that legally backs the termination. You didn't tell us if the sacked person met the targets he/she signed to meet. We don't know if the referees were inadequate and new ones weren't provided. We don't know if the certificate verification came back negative. All you have painted is the employees side of the story. Let's hear from the employer. Also, dragging FBN into the matter is funny, because FBN did not employ the person. Whyte.... did. Do you give your car to a mechanic and arrest his apprentice when he knocks your engine? I own 2 companies, and must say employees in this part of the world are funny. I was once a employee also. A staff who got an official car, but can't drive handed over the company car to his sister who was using it until we found out. Contract staffing have timeframe, was it due and not renewed? 30-35 years sacking means the person has been there 7 or 8 years...or 5years at the least if he graduated 29... 1 Like |

What many people don't understand this is 2017 and not in 60s. The Bank jobs now doesn't require so many ma power because Technology already available to do it. I live in Australia and many branch banks only have 3 or 4 people only work in a bank. Because people withdraw and deposit at the atm. You don't need to go bank to get a card or renew , you do it online and they post it 2 you in 5 working days. My advice is that if you are working in a Bank at this moment, please try to save some money to start a business because you will be out of job soon. 4 Likes |

The job is meant to be temporary but inability to secure a better deal keeps/kept a lot of people for 10 years and above. The experience is worthwhile though, for some that finally got the desired breakthrough. 3 Likes 1 Share |

I think there should be payoff for these people , they should be paid like first bank core staff that were layoff . I learnt that Whytecleon acquired in sourcing but they were not paid off that time. Since Whytecleon had acquired insourci g they are liable to pay.This is corruption. |

The whole idea of job security is a fallacy today.Everyone must prepare for the rainy day.However, Banks must learn to be loyal to their staff.If the staff,whether contract or core,discover that the organisation does not value them and can sack them any time,they can resort to fraudulent self help. 1 Like |

Klimaths: This does not only happen to contracts, it also affects permanent ones. MTN in April 2017 suddenly decides to give her permanent staffs exit opportunity. In other words, resign and be paid off peanuts, even after working for 13 years. They did this to frustrate those staffs that have stayed long in the business,but remained on one spot for years with accumulated salary increase in spite of all additional qualifications they must have acquired. The management believed most of them were already too old for their level, level 2 at age between 35 to 45 upwards. (MTN with their poor and exploitative career path do not promote automatically, u have to keep applying to move ahead in the midst of very strong politics for several years of which u become old and stagnant on one spot after which they flush u out on age basis) The management decided to bring in fresh and very young graduates to fit into their spaces which explained the massive recruitment being done recently in the last 3 to 2 months. The best thing is to be creative and look for businesses one can do instead of this ''yes sir'' ''yes sir'' to slave drivers. 1 Like |
