- Motion text
There are various anomalies that may be faced by hourly paid members who participate in the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS), including a reduced recognised length of service where class contact hours only are counted as service, and the reduction of the hourly rate by 14%, the amount of the employer's contribution, when the hourly paid staff member joins USS (in addition to the same staff member paying the employees' contribution).
HESC calls on the HEC to seek to bring an early end to unfavourable treatment of hourly paid staff as regards USS, by engaging both with the Universities Superannuation Scheme and with the employers, and by making full use both of legislation and of collective bargaining.
