Open University UCU have pulled together a survey they are making available to all members to complete. The results will be shared with UCU members and used to provide data to underpin how UCU nationally responds to current events.

It’s a bit convoluted (trying to cover past and present experience in same questions) but you don’t need to answer all the questions. You will need to include an email address to complete it.

The survey is open until mid-September.

The full Joint Unions claim on pay and conditions was published last week. The headlines are:

• an increase on all pay points of at least RPI + 2% or a flat rate of at least £2,500 (whichever is greater) and a commitment to restore lost pay.
• Equivalent rises to London Weighting and any other allowances
• A new minimum pay rate of £15 an hour.
• All institutions to become Foundation Living Wage employers and pay points below the FLW to be deleted.
• UCEA should commit to a comprehensive reform of the pay spine

The full claim is quite readable, provides a rationale for the headlines and includes a number of additional claims – e.g. To establish the Scottish sub-committee of New JNCHES.
