The HE pay ballot closes in just ten days - your ballot needs to be received by 28 November for it to be counted. Vote YES today to #fundourfuture and #fundourpay.

1.4% is a real-terms pay cut, and unfair compared to other public sector offers. University staff deserve better.

This years HE pay offer was so disappointing that there is coordinated balloting across multiple unions. You can find our joint materials here, alongside UNISON-specific ones: unsn.uk/3Xu1Dcg

The higher education pay ballot is open now. Staff in universities deserve better than constant real-terms pay cuts.

Without dedicated support staff, universities would not function. VOTE YES in the industrial action pay ballot to #fundourfuture and #fundourpay.

🚨 We are balloting members in higher education over this years pay offer. Voting YES for strike action sends a strong message to your employers that you deserve more for your hard work.

The #fundourfuture bear has voted in the industrial action pay ballot and returned their #bearllotpaper – have you?

Universities would not function without support staff, and a pay offer of just 1.4% - a real-terms pay cut – is simply not good enough. VOTE YES for industrial action to #fundourpay.

Museum managers requested a meeting then brought a worse offer than a previous one 🤔

"It seemed as though they were keen to resolve the dispute and show staff they’re valued... It’s a clear demonstration of how little managers value staff."
