🚨BREAKING - STAGGERING RISE IN THE USE OF ZERO HOUR CONTRACTS IN SCOTLAND🚨
ONS stats have today revealed an increase in use of zero hour contracts in Scotland, a rise to 3.9% of the workforce (higher than UK average of 3.4%). This is the first time numbers have topped 100 000.
The Labour Research Department have published this excellent little review of the risks that workers face when they use social media: https://t.co/QYNtH0f36T @EIS_ENU@EISUnion

Our lovely picketers are out again, despite drizzle. Some good chats with students about #whyweareSTILLstriking (casualisation, inequalities in pay & pay cuts disguised as pay rises).
We also spoke to staff feeling the heat of casualisaton about joining a union #ucuRISING
In light of this WIDENING gender pay gap, surprising to receive email from @EdinburghNapier Dep VC saying “over recent yrs we have made considerable progress” on gender equality - w/invite to ‘promotions workshop’ as if it is US who need to learn/improve.
