Higher education members reject ‘insulting’ pay freeze

UNISON’s higher education service group executive (SGE) have met  and considered the results of a member consultation on the pay freeze that has been imposed on staff in the sector.
The consultation closed on Monday 30 November and members voted overwhelmingly to reject the pay freeze.
The SGE decided that, on this basis, a dispute should be lodged with the employers and that the campaign should be escalated, including planning for industrial action.
