- Motion text
Conference is concerned that the ability to include staff who have been made redundant in submissions to the REF increases vulnerability of staff and the risk of casualisation. Some universities have agreed polices to protect staff.
Conference instructs HEC to campaign for
1. employing institutions, possibly through UCEA, to agree not to return submissions of compulsorily redundant staff.
2. call on UCU to name and shame institutions abusing the REF process and to highlight good practice.
