University strikes: UCU members vote in favour of three days of strikes over pay, working conditions and pensions
from Wednesday 23 November, which includes working to rule, refusing to make up work lost as a result of strike action and refusing to cover for absent colleagues.
“Vice-chancellors are choosing to pay themselves hundreds of thousands of pounds whilst forcing our members onto low paid and insecure contracts that leave some using foodbanks. They choose to hold billions in surpluses whilst slashing staff pensions. “If university vice-chancellors don’t get serious, our message is simple - this bout of strike action will be just the beginning.”Over 70,000 university staff from 150 universities around the UK will strike on three dates this month.
Chloe Field, NUS vice president of higher education, said: ”Students stand in solidarity with the 70,000 university staff across the UK who will strike later this month. Staff teaching conditions are students’ learning conditions, and we must fight together for a fairer, healthier education system for everyone who works and studies.
