Motion text

This Congress notes the ongoing problem of occupational stress in further and higher education in the UK. It notes the work already underway including the recent survey by UCU into the nature, causes and consequences of stress. It calls on NEC to analyse and disseminate the results of the UCU survey, and prepare recommendations which will inform negotiations and campaigns nationally and locally, and include the development of UCU guidelines for branches and local health and safety representatives as a key strand in combating occupational stress.
Congress also notes that large numbers of members are affected by this issue and it is therefore important that we use our local and national campaigning on occupational stress as part of a recruitment campaign to win new members.
