Swansea University UCU
Swansea University is facing salary deductions of 50%, with threats of 100%, for boycotting marking and assessment, work which often takes around 5 – 10% of staff’s time.
Swansea University’s Management have currently remained firm on deducting staff 50% of their salary, and the Union Committee are fighting this. Swansea UCU are using their local fund to support members with financial assistance; however, this fund is limited due to the size of this industrial action. Many staff will be in difficult financial situations over the coming months, and we are fundraising for union members who require financial aid over this period.
Your support will enable members to partake in the boycott, placing pressure on Universities and UCEA to come to the table and negotiate with the University College Union.
Please share this far and wide – all colleagues stand to benefit if our action is successful, and our working conditions are our students’ learning conditions. An injury to one is an injury to all.
