Employees at dozens of academic institutions back industrial action in dispute dating back to 2018
Strikes are set to take place at dozens of universities across the UK, potentially before Christmas, after University and College Union members backed industrial action over cuts to their pensions.
UCU announced that 76% of members who voted were in favour of strikes, while 88% backed action short of a strike, on a turnout of 53% that passed the statutory minimum of 50% of membership required.
