Staff of UT and Capital Banks are to undergo a skills assessment exercise to qualify for employment at GCB Bank.
The Chief Executive Officer of GCB Bank, Raymond Sowah said this at a press conference in Accra on Tuesday.
“…We shall conduct a skills assessment. As part of integration process we need to know that we can bring everyone on board or we can’t bring everyone on board. This is an expanded institution and as we go through the integration we should know what jobs to close down and what jobs to retain,” he said.
Citifmonline also reports that staff of the two banks will be under probation for about six months under GCB before termination of their contracts.
GCB Bank on Monday assumed the 53 branches of both UT and Capital Banks, thereby growing its network to 214 branches across the country.
The liquidation of the two banks had become necessary due to the severe impairment of their capital.
