Gewerkschaft: Bankangestellte fordern bis zu drei KI-Entlastungstage im Quartal
Die Finanzbranche setzt zunehmend auf Künstliche Intelligenz. Dadurch werde die Arbeit dichter und komplexer, argumentiert die Gewerkschaft der Bankangestellten – und verlangt Entlastung.
The Deutsche Bank Employees' Union (DBV) is demanding up to three days off per quarter due to the growing use of artificial intelligence in the private banking sector, which will be discussed in the upcoming collective bargaining talks. Automation shortens specific processes and increases the number of cases that can be handled, a communication to the union members, obtained by Bloomberg News, states.
This new burden could result from employees processing more cases, verifying results, and correcting errors in the same time. "Where work becomes denser, more complex, or responsible, the operation needs a balance," Wolfgang Ermann, DBV negotiator for private banks, said. Depending on the nature and severity of the burden, the DBV is requesting between one and three AI relief days per quarter in certain bank areas.
To ensure uniform and timely use, these days should be taken during the creation period and not transferable, the union insisted. Timely utilization ties regeneration to the period when the additional burden actually arises. Part-time employees should be adequately included, the union said.
