Hourly paid teaching staff aren't paid to monitor our teaching email inboxes, reply to students, or offer office/advice and feedback hours in terms when we're not teaching.

Set an out of office to explain to students: it's not that we're bad teachers, it's that we're unpaid!

We're supporting the national #StandUpToRacism demo on Saturday 1st February

When we are united we can push back racism and the far right ✊

so save the dates & see you there ❤️‍🔥

[Warwick PGR Collective @PgrWarwick]

@sarahattersley @uniofwarwick Even worse - it's 1 hour per 3000 words, so many assignments are assigned even less time, e.g. 40 mins for 2000 words, 20 mins for 1000. Add together the time taken to read, reflect, compare, mark, write meaningful feedback, and add the marks on Tabula = a lot of unpaid work!

[Warwick PGR Collective @PgrWarwick]

[Goldsmiths PGRs @GoldPGRs]

Read this. Black workers forced out if they speak up about racism, "senior leaders" prioritising their pay packets over junior staff's pay and conditions, GS hiring incompetent senior managers. Sounds like our uni, but it's actually @ucu .The rank-and-file deserve SO MUCH better.

[Sam Morecroft @SamMorecroft]

Come to @ucu Annual meeting for Casualised staff on Sat 24th Feb! Always a great event+just 1 week left to register!

Unfortunately @DrJoGrady stole our @UCUAnti_Cas account. This makes it hard to promote stuff.😰

Can you please help us spread the word?

Reminder - actions for 🍉 starting at 8:40 tomorrow morning on campus. See below for details.

[Unite UCU @UniteUCU]

After being told by the HSE to work with us to address high levels of work-related stress, we're pleased our employer accepted action was needed over the 26 stressors we identified. Unfortunately we believe the actions our employer has told the HSE they would take are inadequate.
