Dear Canpals,

Our benevolent management has already issued guidelines which paved the way for permitting the handicapped, visually impaired and pregnant women to work from home.

By permitting the roster, it is indicated to permit the staff to come on rotation.

It may further be noted that the branch incharge shall take a decision at their level to implement the Bank’s directions and send the details for information to ROs.

Today the SLBC has also relaxed certain conditions like 10 to 2 pm Business hours, which was with the sole intention of permitting the bank staff to reach home early on completion of business hours and day closing related activities.

It is also permitted to retain 50% of the staff after permitting deserving people to work from home.

Kindly be in touch with the local government authorities and comply with their directions fully.

Follow the government guidelines on social distancing strictly and also seek the assistance of the police wherever required.

All the statutory issues are deferred till June which includes even the obtention of AOD.

Be careful in sending notices on recovery as it involves the reputation of our great bank.

On 13th almost all the bank branches, which includes 20 branches of Canara bank in Tiruvellore District are closed.

In Hubli, good number of our officers were asked to rest at home for 22 days from today as they have come across one corona patient a week back in the branch.

The above incidences must have given sufficient insight in to the need of the hour, for the responsible and seasoned bankers like us.

Branch managers are literate, committed and responsible individuals in the field level and they are capable of taking right decision at their level in the interest of our country, public and our great bank.
