BOQ plans to cut 400 jobs – we must demand answers

BOQ recently announced its financial year results which includes plans to significantly reduce its workforce as part of a ‘simplification agenda’.

This includes cuts to 400 jobs over the next three years, on top of the approximately 100 jobs they already cut last financial year. In addition, BOQ management has told investors it aims to automate more than 80% of its key processes.

But they haven’t told us which jobs will be impacted or how exactly the ‘simplification’ process will take place.

Sign our petition calling on BOQ to come clean about their planned job cuts and to consult with BOQ staff and the FSU.

It’s time to demand answers

We have written to BOQ seeking further information about this process but so far, they haven’t provided any clarity.

It’s time we demand answers from the Bank urgently.

If you are not already an FSU member, now is the time to join.

In unity,

Your FSU team
