Answer
(Fatwa: 513/502=N)
The above mentioned work amounts to helping in interest transactions and helping someone in sin is also prohibited: لقولہ تعالی: ولا تعاونوا علی الاثم والعدوان واتقوا اللہ (الآیۃ). Therefore, your job is not right. Moreover, generally the bank uses interest money for salary of the employees, if it is so then your earning is also unlawful.
