Strike action set to continue

As a result of discussions initiated by the EIS, we welcome the fact that the Principalship is prepared to restore equal conditions of employment for some lecturers.

It is disappointing that it required industrial action before these meaningful discussions resulted in this partial u-turn.

HOWEVER, the EIS continues to strive for guarantees that ALL staff will be treated equally.

The significant majority of the staff engaged in this action are not directly affected by the changes to conditions. However, we are committed to supporting and protecting ALL, not just some, of our more vulnerable colleagues.
