University Staff Strike for Fair Pay

Published 4 weeks ago
Description

Unite union members at Edinburgh Napier University, along with colleagues at Glasgow and Strathclyde universities, are set to strike on April 10th over a proposed 1.4% pay raise, which they deem a real-terms pay cut amid soaring inflation. These non-academic staff have seen their wages drop by 30% in real terms since 2010, and unions are pushing for at least RPI plus 3% or £3,000, along with a £15 minimum hourly rate, in the next pay round. The strikes highlight growing discontent over low pay and working conditions in Scottish universities.
