European Banking Social partners sign Joint declaration on Remote work and New technologies

Today, on December 7 2021, the European Banking Social Partners got together in Brussels to sign a Joint Declaration on Remote work and New Technologies. The spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and the constantly increasing use of digitalised systems and processes led the Social Partners to reassess and appropriately update the approach to remote work in the European Banking sector.

NFU President (and President for UNI Europa Finance) Michael Budolfsen was one of signatories. NFU was further represented in Brussels by Vasilka Lalevska and Carin Hallerström.
