Halifax has come under fire this week following a decision to make a subtle change to their staff name badges. The bank has now introduced pronouns onto the name tags of each of its employees.
A picture shared by Halifax on Twitter showed an employee with 'she', 'her' and 'hers' written underneath her name 'Gemma', alongside the caption "Pronouns matter. #ItsAPeopleThing."
But after some people hit out at the controversial move, the bank caused a stir after telling its customers that they are free to close their accounts down if they disagree with their values.
