    Moral sentiments and oppositional practice in branch work: a moral economy approach · 2025 · DOI

  • The critique of sales-driven performance models that fragment workplace solidarity and undermine the moral economy of banking has been well established in academic, policy, and media discourse. Yet, despite these criticisms, meaningful change has been slow, and a deeper cultural shift in the sector remains elusive. As this article shows, long-standing workers drawing on moral dispositions rooted in responsibility and care find themselves navigating individualised performance systems that prioritise short-term outcomes and disrupt relational forms of labour.

Campaigns that foreground fairness, justice, and dignity across both newer and more experienced cohorts can help foster a shared moral economy of banking work. Supporting mentorship, encouraging intergenerational dialogue, and strengthening collaborative infrastructures may further enable emerging solidarities, especially in workplaces where individualisation has weakened traditional forms of collective organisation. In this context, unions can be seen not only as defenders of employment conditions, but as curators of a broader moral framework for meaningful and sustainable work. Regulatory and policy frameworks also play a critical role in shaping whether and how a moral economy of banking can take root. The overemphasis on sales targets has contributed to precarious working conditions, the eros
