Time for BOQ to come clean on job cuts

The BOQ Annual General Meeting (AGM) will take place tomorrow, Tuesday 5 December, 10am (Brisbane time) at the Sofitel Hotel.

This is the perfect opportunity for us to ask BOQ CEO Patrick Allaway and the BOQ Board to come clean about their planned job cuts.

As you know, BOQ management has proposed a ‘simplification agenda’ which includes plans to cut 400 additional jobs in the next three years, and automate over 80% of its key processes.

So far, BOQ management haven’t provided any clarity on these job cuts.

If you haven’t already, sign our petition calling on BOQ to come clean about their planned job cuts and to consult with BOQ staff and the FSU.
