Polaris Bank Limited has restated its respect for employees’ right to worship.
This was made known in a statement issued by Wale Arowojolu, the Corporate Social Responsibility l Strategic Brand Management l Polaris Bank Ltd., Head Office, Victoria Island, Lagos.
He said in a statement, “Our attention has been drawn to a shared screenshot of an internal mail sent by one of our Yes Centre team supervisors to staff in the department.
“In the said mail, which has become widely circulated in the media, we note that the issue in question was a communication to her colleagues on the implication of everyone leaving the office at the same time and disrupting service delivery to customers. This communication was issued by the said officer without understanding its implications and does not reflect the policy of the Bank.
“We wish to state that Polaris Bank recognizes the right of every individual to practise his or her faith in line with constitution of the Federal Republic Nigeria and accordingly does not discriminate on the basis of religion.
“We thank all our customers and other stakeholders for the trust and confidence reposed in us and reassure of excellence service delivery at all times,”Arowojolu stated.
