# RBI officers’ body seeks policy review over promotion woes 2026-08-08T04:46:12+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Reserve Bank of India Officers' Association (RBIOA) has written to RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra, demanding an urgent review of recent HR policy changes that it says have hurt career progression, morale and welfare. In an August 6 representation, the body cited a survey of members across Grades A to E. The survey found 85 per cent of respondents saw poor promotion prospects, 79 per cent reported low morale, and 91 per cent viewed new promotion rules unfavourably. The association criticised the May promotion policy, saying it ignored their suggestions, and flagged concerns over perquisites, childcare support and work-life balance, particularly among women officers. ## Coverage - hr.economictimes.indiatimes.com Tags: employee morale, HR policy, promotions, RBI, RBIOA Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/rbi-officers-body-seeks-policy-review-over-promotion-woes/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
