Following the VC’s email to staff this morning, K-UCU would like to re-assure members that we are in close discussion with the Director of Human Resources and will also be speaking to the University Secretary and Registrar at JNC next week.

Please also note we are holding our Annual General Meeting tomorrow (Friday 28 May 2010  from 1-2 pm, in the Chancellor’s  Building, room CBA0.060) and  our guest speakers are Terry McKnight from UCU National Executive Committee and Barry Johnson, UCU Regional Official, who will be talking about pay, pensions and finances.

In the meantime please do contact one of our officers if you have any queries and/or concerns, or leave a comment on this web page below.
