Congress observes:
1. the sector-wide attacks on workers’ pay, conditions, and rights seen in Further and Higher Education are replicated throughout working society in the UK.
Congress notes:
a. the TUC’s Charter for a New Deal for Workers, at https://www.tuc.org.uk/NewDealForWorkers, sets out a cross-union campaign for protection from precarious employment, stronger protection from dismissal, a real living wage, equality of pay and conditions, and more as described in the Charter.
Congress believes:
i. in the power of worker solidarity to improve our conditions, and that our struggle extends beyond our sector and the workers we represent.
Congress resolves:
A. to adopt the New Deal for Workers as UCU policy and to mandate the Executive Committee to advocate for the New Deal alongside comrades from other TUC member unions.
