We request the University of Dundee supports a national increase in pay!
If not, the University can resolve this dispute locally!! We urge them to do so!

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

Unison Dundee University Branch members have overwhelmingly voted for industrial action on pay. We will strike 18-22 Sep.

Whilst this is a national dispute senior management at Dundee University has the power to increase pay or the T&C's of their staff locally. #DundeeUniStrikes

Dundee University branch members of UNISON have overwhelmingly voted for strike action over pay!

Staff need to be valued if the HE sector is to survive!!

[UNISON in Higher Education @UNISONinHE]

The branch are working hard toward the reimplementation of HERA and Living Wage accreditation.

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

This is great news.

[Dundee EIS @DundeeEis]

Pay offer accepted.
Turn out 82%
Accept 90%
Future strikes are now cancelled.
Well done everyone 👏

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

It’s fantastic that striking UNISON members at the University of Dundee saved the local defined benefit pension scheme!

This highlights what can be achieved by making a stance and taking part in industrial action!!

The branch salutes each and every one of you!!

We're happy to be able to support the Dundee West End Community Fridge run by @TransitionDund that is feeding some of our students.

Great to see the power when communities come together.

Check out their fundraising page to keep the Fridge running here https://t.co/dcXhYZke7b

[UNISON in Higher Education @UNISONinHE]

We are rising together for better pay.

[UNISON Scotland @unisonscot]

This not a win for @scotgov - it is a warning.

57% of NHS members balloted have voted to accept the offer. The turnout in the digital ballot was 62%.

This has been a long hard-fought campaign during which time members have show great strength and resilience. 3/3

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

Last week we consulted our members via an online consultative ballot, regarding an offer negotiated by the University Executive Group and UNISON.

The offer covers the following four elements.
1. Pensions
2. Living Wage Accreditation
3. HERA
4. £750 cost of living payment

1/3

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

The results were

Yes, I accept the offer - 80.7%

No, I do not accept the offer - 19.3%

The majority of members who voted have accepted this offer. In doing so this brings UNISON's current pension dispute to a conclusion, and we will not be balloting on pay. 2/3

[UNISON Scotland Higher Education @UNISON_Scot_HE]

📮This winter 6 more Scottish HE branches will be balloted over a derisory 3% pay offer

✊@UNISON_UofG took action + won a consolidated rise of 6-12.9% for the lowest paid. Striking works!

Join us Tues 29th to hear how they did it with @RozFoyer @RMT_Scotland + @unisonscot

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

@DucuUo @uodunite Sounds like a good idea.

[UNISON University of Dundee @UnisonOf]

We're all in this together. How are the University going to take people with you when you're in an 18 month dispute with your staff?
There's been great support from the local community and local politicians too.

[UoDUCU is pure raging #Savethe632 @DucuUo]

You are not taking members of @uodunite and @UnisonOf with you. Not caring is really sad. Such a shame. #LackingSocialPurpose
