🚨NAMED AND SHAMED – SUFFOLK UNIVERSITY

Helen Langton, vice chancellor @UniofSuffolk will push staff into poverty if she follows through with her threat to deduct all their wages

We won’t accept this behaviour

MANDATE RENEWED!

We've sailed past the threshold and increased the YES vote in the pay and conditions ballot

[UCU @ucu]

Universities should be engines of equality, but for many staff they are deeply unequal places

On International Women's Day, vote YES and let's bring home a deal to close these shocking pay gaps

#ucuRISING

[UCU @ucu]

Hopefully they'll be discussing their gender pay gap.

Vote YES to deliver equality.

Today, our union has called a further day of strike action in universities on 15 March

This comes after employers decided to impose the first element of their pay offer

As talks continue, we must get ready to deliver big strike action and vote YES in the reballot

PAY NEGOTIATIONS UPDATE

Over a decade of falling wages is no laughing matter

@UCEA1 must deliver a much improved offer on 25 January - or face action
