📣We're on strike next Tuesday, Wednesday + Thursday!
📈After 13 years of wage stagnation in Higher Education - and double-figure inflation - an imposed 3% is *not* a pay rise, it's a real-terms pay cut!
Join us on the picket lines at our Musselburgh campus to demand more👇
🔥Over the next 2 weeks @GsaUnison and @UnisonQmu join the fight for a real pay rise. With inflation at double figures, workers can't afford a real-terms pay cut of 3%. It's time for employers to pay up!
✊Get down to the picket lines & show your support. We'll see you there!
Our digital pay consultation is now live!
Ready to take part? Go straight to the consultation now and have your say. Members will need to have their membership number or NI number available to verify they are able to participate.

Great to see members (and their little activists!) fighting for the pay rise higher education workers need in 2023 ✊
