- Motion text
Congress notes growing concern over practices that may constitute blocklisting and/or breach GDPR on reporting industrial action.
Congress resolves to:
1. Survey industrial action reporting instructions, mechanisms, and information retention practices across post-16 institutions, using data gathering methods including surveys to branch executives and formal information requests to institutions
2. Determine where practices are legally compliant, and where practices appear to be lawful, how such mechanisms may be unfair and potentially discriminatory or detrimental, for example to migrant members
3. Analyse results including via scrutiny by ROCC and the equality standing committees and special employment advisory committees (eg ARPS and Anticasualisation Committee)
4. Publish results and initial analysis of this survey, circulating to branches and other campus trade unions
5. Encourage regional and devolved national committees to discuss survey results and analysis, feeding back to NEC and subcommittees
i. Mount collective campaigns and (where applicable) provide legal support to resist unfair and deleterious industrial action reporting practices.
