The higher education committee (HEC) has now agreed the following programme of action aimed at improving the offer from 1.1%:
- A two day national strike Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 May.
- An instruction to members to work to contract with effect from 25/05/2016. Full guidance will be issued this week on what you should and should not do.
The HEC has also agreed to make preparations for further action aimed at student admissions and at the setting and marking of students’ work should the employers not improve their offer.
Finally, outside the action, the union will also be appealing to all members to resign, giving due notice, from currently held external examiner positions and not to take up new ones until the dispute is settled.
