Thank you to everyone who voted in the ballots - you have put senior management on notice that we will not stand idly by as our hard-won pensions, pay and working conditions are worn away, year-on-year #UCUballot #UCUstrike #HelloBrum #JoinIn
Birmingham UCU members have sent a clear message to senior management with a 82% yes vote in favour of strike action to defend pensions and a 77% yes vote for action in the pay, equality, workloads and casualisation ballot.
Turnout in both ballots exceeded the 50% threshold required for action under the Trade Union Act 2012, with a 57.92% turnout in the pensions ballot and 58% turnout in the pay ballot.
Please join us for our next General Members’ Meeting on Tuesday 12 November, 12-1pm, in the Arts Building, LT 2, to help us plan our next steps. No matter how little spare time you've got, there's always something you can do to help!
Whilst we are preparing for strike action, we remain open to meaningful negotiations with senior management. Let's talk @unibirmingham! 😀
