National Pay Claim

Posted on May 30, 2012 in Campaigns, National Pay Claim 2012

The third New JNCHES national claim negotiating meeting took place on 22 May. The full and final offer made by the employers’ representatives at UCEA falls short of the HE trade unions expectations, and indeed barely addresses the various elements in the claim in any serious way. The trade unions were unanimous in stating that their respective negotiating teams would not be recommending acceptance of the final offer to members. All five unions; UCU, Unison, Unite, GMB and EIS will now consult members via their respective democratic structures. EIS and Unite rejected the offer.
