Pay matters

Posted on by marcw

University staff negotiate pay with their employers on a national basis. Five unions are involved, covering staff working in every job from the post-graduate teaching assistants to librarians, coffee shop baristas to the bleary eyed Monday morning lecturer, grounds maintenance crew to lab technician.

 

University bosses imposed a pay deal on the staff that make their institutions function that they knew was significantly below inflation last year, and have done the same this year. Yet the cost of living, and particularly food, continues to rise rapidly.
