The ministry of finance has recommended to the banks to facilitate transfers for their female employees as per their preference in order to live with parents or husband.
Currently, there are many female bank employees who have to live away from their parents or husband because of transfers. The ministry of finance has recommended this measure to alleviate this problem. This step will help them to live along with their parents or husbands.
If it is not possible to transfer to the exact location preferred, the banks can at least transfer to a place which is the nearest to the residing place of their husbands or parents.
There are about 8 Lakh employees working in 27 nationalised banks & their branches all over the country. There are around 25 Lakhs of women employees. Some of them have been compelled to live alone with less security away from their husbands/parents. The ministry of finance has taken this step to do away with their hardships.
