It is expected that the reorganization plan will improve and optimize the efficiency of 870 service points across the country, including the closure of the 361 units.

In a statement, the bank says that “The reorganization of the service network aims to adapt to the new profile and behavior of customers and includes, in addition to the above-described optimization measures, other movements of review and resizing in the boards, support areas, and network, prioritizing specialized service and expanding the offer of digital solutions.”

Termination Program

The so-called voluntary termination method with incentives is as follows:

Workforce Adjustment Program – PAQ: in order to optimize the distribution of the workforce, addressing the situations of vacancies and excesses in the bank’s units. In addition to the option of termination, the PAQ encourages lateral movements to units where there are vacancies.

Extraordinary Termination Program – PDE: available to all BB employees who meet the prerequisites and is specifically for encouraging termination, with a limit of 5,000 participants.
