- Motion text
Conference notes:
1. the National Post-92 Contract stipulates explicit maxima for the teaching week and year; the right to 35 days leave and 5+ weeks Research and Scholarly Activity
2. the commitment of Post-92 institutions to TPS
3. the University of Staffordshire using a subsidiary company to employ new staff, thus circumventing commitment to TPS and fragmenting the workforce
Conference agrees that:
a. Defence of the national Post-92 Contract is of national importance for UCU
b. The Staffordshire dispute is of national importance
Conference resolves to:
i. convene a national meeting of post-92 branches to discuss developments affecting the national contract and commitment to TPS
ii. inform in writing, and via the UCU website, all Post-92 members about the contract on the maximum working week and year, and the right to a minimum 5 weeks self-directed research/scholarly activity
iii. offer national support to UCU University of Staffordshire and to any UCU branch facing a similar attack
