Expired only last year

The IBA and the unions representing bank employees are continuously negotiating for a wage hike and a new wage agreement.
Finance Ministry has this trust
The Finance Ministry has written a letter to the IBA saying that the government is committed to ensure that the interests of the employees of the banks are protected. The government also expressed confidence that the IBA and the bank unions would arrive at a suitable solution at the earliest. The Finance Ministry has also told the IBA that any further wage negotiations should be completed before the old agreement expires.
This causes delay

These factors include topics ranging from the financial condition of the banks to the cost of living of the employees. This is the reason that every time it takes a long time to finalize the agreement.
