UCU: The recalcitrant approach of employers on improvements to pay

Motion

Motion text: Congress notes:
1. the recalcitrant approach of employers on improvements to pay;
2. attacks by employers on terms and conditions worsening the effects on casualised members;
3. attacks on pensions and the consequent detrimental effects in the longer terms on equalities;
4. the context of a national pandemic; and,
5. the need for a national strategy to protect jobs, terms, conditions and pensions.
Congress calls on UCU:
a. to press for employers to agree a national moratorium on compulsory redundancies for 1 year; and,
b. demands for a 2-year minimum contract for casualised staff.
