The Bnl Bnp Paribas group and banking unions have reached an agreement focused on various issues such as new employment opportunities, the activation of the solidarity fund, and measures to support employment in light of a potential pool of exits. Under this agreement, up to 908 exits with a maximum of 776 new entries are expected by 2026. Fabio Armeni, the Fabi coordinator in the Bnl Bnp Paribas group, expressed satisfaction with the agreement, highlighting the allocation of new economic resources for workers, investments in complementary pensions for young people, and support for employees in customer-facing roles.
Fisac Cgil considers this agreement to be a crucial starting point for improving relations with the company. Martina Braga, the responsible secretary for Fisac Cgil Bnl, hailed the agreement as innovative, emphasizing its success in facilitating generational turnover while providing support for workers facing retirement. The agreement includes improvements on the welfare front, such as an increase in meal ticket allocation, pension fund contributions, and meal vouchers for those working in smart working arrangements.
Mariangela Verga, Uilca national secretary, appreciated the agreement’s use of the Solidarity Fund on a voluntary basis to balance early worker exits with a high number of hirings. First Cisl acknowledged that the positive climate of trade union relations fostered by this agreement after years of confrontations was hopeful for a fruitful phase of dialogue and collective bargaining leading up to the BNP Paribas Group’s 2026 industrial plan.
