Annwyl aelodau

1)       Dylech fod wedi cael eich papurau pleidleisio erbyn hyn.

2)       Daw’r bleidlais i ben ar 28 Tachwedd.

3)       Pleidlais ydyw ar ddechrau gweithredu diwydiannol ar ffurf streiciau, a gweithredu heb gynnwys streicio, ar y materion isod:

   a.       codi tâl yn unol  â’r RPI + 3.5% o leiaf, neu £2,500, p’un bynnag fo’r uchaf, ar bob pwynt cyflog
   b.       gweithredu ar y cyd i amddiffyn cytundebau cenedlaethol ar delerau ac amodau cyflogaeth
   c.       cytundeb cenedlaethol i osgoi colli swyddi, cau cyrsiau, a thorri disgyblaethau academaidd ar draws y sector.

4)       Os na chawsoch eich papurau, mae modd erbyn hyn wneud cais am gael rhai newydd –  drwy’r ddolen hon here

5)       Sicrhewch fod manylion eich aelodaeth yn gywir. Os bydd gweithredu diwydiannol, neu os byddwch am ddwyn achos yn erbyn y brifysgol, bydd angen i’ch manylion fod yn gywir er mwyn i’r undeb allu’ch cefnogi chi.

6.	If you have already voted please use the link here Bydd hynny hefyd yn golygu na chewch fwy o negeseuon i’ch atgoffa i bleidleisio.

7)      Mae croeso i chi rannu negeseuon ‘Rwy wedi pleidleisio, ydych chi?’ ar y cyfryngau cymdeithasol. Tagiwch @ucuaber.bsky.social. Cofiwch beidio â rhannu lluniau o’r papur pleidleisio ei hun (cyn ei lenwi nac wedyn), dim ond yr amlen.

8)       Os hoffech weld mwy o weithgarwch ar y campws i hybu’r bleidlais, cysylltwch : Alison Garrod AGarrod@UCU.ORG.UK;  Susan Chapman scc@aber.ac.uk; Steph Jones  sbj@aber.ac.uk  i wirfoddoli ychydig o amser. Mae gennym bosteri a deunydd hybu o bencadlys UCU i’w rhannu.

9)       Mae cynrychiolwyr cangen Aber UCU wedi’u gwahodd i gyfarfodydd ar-lein cenedlaethol ar 6, 12 a 18 Tachwedd. Rhannwch eich barn â’ch cynrychiolydd adrannol neu aelod o’r Pwyllgor Gwaith os hoffech inni godi rhywbeth yn y fforymau hyn neu os oes awgrymiadau am beth y dylai’r gangen ofyn i’r aelodau yn ei gylch.

10)  Mae pencadlys UCU hefyd yn ffrydio sawl digwyddiad ‘esbonio’r bleidlais’ dros y mis nesaf. Cadwch lygad ar agor am fanylion yn eich ebyst

Aberystwyth University trade unions have entered a period of ‘collective consultation’ and negotiation with the employer.

As part of the process unions will have access to responses to the consultation submitted by individual staff. This will be with personal information (e.g. names, or a comment based on someone’s personal circumstance, like a health issue) redacted. Union representatives only have access on the basis of maintaining confidentiality.

This will help unions to better understand the issues raised by staff, and ideas they may have proposed to address problems resulting from the proposals to restructure.

This post is also to notify members of UCU that as representatives of staff in the collective consultation individuals are welcome to send us direct a copy of their responses to or thoughts on a specific consultation. Please email ucustaff@aber.ac.uk if you wish to do this.

The more information we have the better placed we are to engage meaningfully in this collective consultation, to understand staff concerns and to negotiate on behalf of staff with the employer.

Thousands of staff at campuses across the country are either in dispute and taking industrial action already or balloting to do so as a result of major cuts announced to staffing across the higher education sector over the last three or four months.

The Welsh and Scottish governments have announced modest support measures in recent weeks, but fundamentally the model for funding the training needs and research of the UK is broken. Government needs to act to Stop the Cuts.

Members can sign the UCU petition and find out more about the Stop the Cuts campaign here .
