The
bank says their dismissal is part of a seven-month restructure of the
department and says the changes are being made to improve customer
service.
Around
300 people will be affected, with 100 made redundant.
The
CBA says staff have been informed and it will try to find other
opportunities for those affected.
The
banks says it remains committed to not sending any local jobs
offshore.
The
Finance Sector Union is meeting Commonwealth Bank executives this
afternoon.
The
union's local executive secretary Darren Martin says it is ironic
that the bank is cutting staff at a time of record profits.
"That's
part of our meeting with the bank today," he said.
"We're
already getting reports back from our members that are incredibly
stressed, incredibly disillusioned, and we'll be down there talking
to them on Wednesday."
