Perhaps the grass isn't always greener on the other side...
Over 70,000 higher education staff, including those at the University of Lincoln and Bishop Grosseteste University, will be going on strike on February 1 with trade unions locked in a dispute over pay, pensions and conditions.
The UCU claims that university management imposed a 3% pay rise after “a decade of below-inflation pay awards”, and said a meeting with trade unions on Monday saw the Universities and Colleges Employers Association not budge from their 4-5% offer made last week. “Evidence shows that students support us, and are angry that while they are paying tuition fees that money does not get to frontline staff. We support all other workers taking similar action in standing up for their rights.”
“On February 1, 70,000 university staff will walk out alongside fellow trade unions and hundreds of thousands of other workers to demand their fair share.
