Yours faithfully Sd/(Md. Serajul Haque Miah) Deputy General manager Copy to – 1. Deputy General Manager, Administration & Human Resource Division, Rupali Bank Limited, Head Office, Dhaka. 2. Deputy General Manager, Rupali Bank Limited, Zonal Office, rangpur. 3. Manager, Rupali Bank Limited, Central Road Branch, Rangpur. 4. Office copy. Findings of the Study The human resource Division of Rupali Bank Limited does human resource plan, which includes recruitment, selection, promotion, posting, training and employees’ retirement benefits etc. As per government policy all the nationalized commercial banks have to recruit their officers through Bankers Recruitment Committee (BRC) and the recruiting procedure is done by Central Bank (i.e. Bangladesh Bank). Rupali Bank Limited also recruits the officers through BRC. When man power becomes shortage, then Human Resource Division of the bank requests the BRC and places requisition for their need and the BRC conduct recruitment procedure accordingly. In this recruitment procedure RBL has no opportunity to judge its’ newly recruited officers thoroughly and meticulously. RBL has to perform only police verification works for the selected officers sent by the BRC. This is why manners, mentality, primarily background of the newly recruited officers are not properly known to RBL. For this reason, some less calibers or quality, poor family background officers are recruited. These kind of officers after-words gradually become insincere in their practical life and do unlawful banking activities. They do not bother Rupali Bank Limited Service Rule because of weak training system and feeble monitoring. Moreover, as Rupali Bank Limited is a purely govt. bank, so all kinds of administrative and banking works are done by manual system. As a result misappropriation/pilferage of money of bank customers can easily possible to be done by an dishonest employee. This is why disciplinary cases of RBL are being increased day by day. Recommendation Regarding Disciplinary Action of RBL Disciplinary cases related to disciplinary action. If disciplinary cases can be reduced by somehow mechanism, then disciplinary actions will be declined. I recommend the following methods in this regard. Utilization of modern technology: All branches, Zonal offices and Division of Head Office should be immediately computerized and at the some time present working manual system should be discontinued. If it is done then the ways of fraud-forgery will be narrowed. Online Banking: At present RBL has no online Banking system. I recommend to introduce on line Banking system in order to provide customer service promptly and instant payment.


Money withdrawal system: RBL does not have ATM/Debit/Credit card and Evening banking facilities in all the branches. I recommend RBL to introduce ATM/Debit/Credit cardAll branches, Zonal offices and Evening Banking facilities immediately. Employees training system: Present Rupali Bank Limited Training Institute is antique. I recommend to modernize RBL Training Institute. So that every employee must abide by the service rule and other existing rules and regulations of RBL. Disposal of Disciplinary cases: At present disposal of disciplinary cases are done in long time factor. It takes six to twelve months, even years to years to settle up one case due to manual filing system. I recommend RBL to set up computer and to connect internet in HO Discipline Division and to discontinue present filing system. So, this will be possible to dispose each disciplinary case within a very short period and the total cases will also be coming down gradually. Conclusion An organization smoothly runs, when it’s discipline system exists. There is no other alternative way to run an organization quickly and smoothly except of it’s employees discipline. Rupali Bank Limited is one of the largest Govt. Bank in Bangladesh. It plays an important role for the economic development of the country. It also plays a vital role for the development of agriculture, rural development project as well as corporate sector of Bangladesh. Rupali Bank Limited is a leading commercial bank in Bangladesh having more than 490 branches in home and 1 branch in abroad. The Bank in addition to providing commercial loans, micro credit program for the small borrowers are continuing. Since bank deals with public deposits and borrow these its’ customers as loan. So financial discipline must be strictly maintained. If any employee violates norms of bank and involved himself/herself with fraud forgery or any sort of misappropriation of customers’ money then he/she will be held liable and brought to disciplinary case. Ultimately he/she may be terminated from the service or punished as admissible in the service rule. Human Resource Division of RBL deals with comprehensive and complex task in respect of man power recruitment, promotion, and transfer and employees benefits. But Discipline Division of RBL deals with those employees who are doing unlawful banking activities and breaches Rupali Bank Service Rule. Sometimes actual accused employees are not properly punished due to pressure of big gums. Owing to activities of different dimension, modern technology, modern technique of working system, misappropriation of customer’s money is being observed declining trend. In continuation of this trend, discipline Division of RBL, Head Office is coping up with global scenario and proceeding to reform its’ rules and regulations gradually. Bibliography & Abbreviation
