Day 10 of our strike action on pay and conditions!
Our pay rise is now 7 months late.
Our CEO earned over £600,000 in 2023 and 2024.
THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOL.
@ucu@ShefTUC@The_TUC
Quick update for the rest of the week:
▶️Thursday 4th June: picket 9-11am, Hallam Square, let's have a show of solidarity for our dispute & each other.
▶️Friday 5th June: Rest day (no picket) BUT Branch meeting, online only, 10-11.30. Please check usual comms ✊️
UCU Hallam are serious about negotiating over 130 proposed job losses, including redundancies and the systematic erosion of our members' terms & conditions. The university is not serious about working with us or delivering high quality education. #SaveSheffieldHallam#UCU

A really powerful and moving International Workers Memorial Day service yesterday.
Thank you to all who came, especially our inspirational speakers.
We mourn the dead. We fight for the living.

Sheffield Hallam UCU State of the University Report 2026. Previous cuts have reduced staffing to the lowest levels in the sector. Further proposed cuts exacerbate a death spiral of declining education and research quality, and ever declining income.

Degrees of Uncertainty in Sheffield. With permission @UCU reps @UCUHallam branch read out excerpts from messages they have received from their members regarding the latest proposals from @sheffhallamuni managers. This is no way to run an #HE institution #TUC
Tuition fee rises aren't the answer. To be clear @UCU_Ulster is not calling for that as a resolution.
@ucu policy is for a fully funded HE sector: https://t.co/eedUP2oH4l
This is not students Vs staff, & we will vigorously oppose any attempt to present this as the narrative
This is abhorrent from @UlsterUni@StudyAtUlster senior "leaders" who, after leaving colleagues with the news of 450 redundancies today, are not meeting with staff until 12th May to discuss the redundancy process 😡🤬
Staff left hanging for nearly 4 weeks
Rally TOMORROW, 1pm at Hallam Square! Please attend to support workers at Sheffield Hallam Universitg in the face of exceptional attacks on the workforce and our city.
Day 11 of strike action and the sun has finally found our picket line!
Solidarity to @TheBMA who are also on strike fighting for fair pay today!
#Strike
It’s true.
Students and staff ***ARE*** paying the cost of decades of daft decisions from the university sector management.
