Banks urged to restore six-day working wee

News Paper: Business Recorder

MULTAN (July 23 2010): Multan Chamber of Commerce & Industry (MCCI) has once again strongly urged banks to refrain from observing five-day working week. Malik Asrar Awan, President MCCI in a statement said observing five-day week has created many problems and has severely hampered business activities of the trading and industrial circles.

He said holy month of Ramazan is near when the timeline of commercial activities would be limited, therefore, unavailability of banking facilities on Saturdays would multiply problems. He further said a large number of complaints have been received stating that all over the world, commercial banks are closed for one day in a week, even in the countries where a five-day week is observed. Awan urged President and Prime Minister to re-notify banks to observing a six-day working week.
