Today’s announcement by ANZ CEO Nuno Matos to cut 3500 jobs across the bank over the next 12 months has caused immediate and significant distress for all employees.
These cuts, which equate to about 14% of ANZ’s entire workforce, will have profound impacts on everyone, both directly and indirectly, and we understand this is an incredibly difficult time for all involved.
As of this morning, ANZ was unable to tell the FSU basic information about these cuts, including who these 3500 workers are. The way staff have learned about these cuts (including through the media and the recent automated email debacle) is a disgrace and has compounded people’s shock and distress.
Our union is lodging a dispute in the Fair Work Commission. We have also sought an urgent meeting with Financial Services Minister Daniel Mulino to discuss these cuts.
