- Motion text
Congress believes that the COVID pandemic raises significant challenges for UCU in protecting the health of its members (and employees) while facilitating participation in union-organised meetings.
Congress notes the wider availability of technology that enables hybrid meetings, and of advice and training in managing such meetings;
Congress therefore calls for UCU meetings at UK and regional level to be hybrid meetings, in order to:
1. Ensure maximum involvement in democratic debate and decision-making;
2. Meet the desire of some members to meet in-person;
3. Meet the desire of other members to meet on-line, particularly for health reasons;
4. Reduce the environmental impacts arising from travel to meetings.
