RBS Offshoring Jobs To India Is The 'Ultimate Betrayal' - Unite
Unite the union has described the announcement that RBS will be offshoring further jobs to India as the "ultimate betrayal" of the loyal workforce.
The union considers it unjustified that the majority state-owned bank is continuing to export jobs abroad and cut staff in the UK.
Rob MacGregor, Unite national officer, said: "The loss of these Royal Bank of Scotland jobs from the UK is the ultimate betrayal for the workforce. The bank is continuing the senseless cutting of important back office functions.
"Unite is calling of RBS to reconsider this offshoring to India for the sake of their staff and their reputations. The union will now press the bank to ensure that they find all staff affected by the offshoring news today suitable alternative employment."
