“We know when enough is enough and our members at Sheffield Hallam University have spoken out clearly”
Sheffield Hallam students may face potential strike disruptions as Hallam’s University College Union (UCU) group voted in favour of strike action this evening.
Nearly two thirds (61.3 per cent) of Hallam UCU members voted to back strike action.
Proposed strike action is taking place due to on-going disputes concerning pensions, pay and working conditions.
In a post, tweeted by Hallam UCU, they said: “We are very pleased with this result! We know when enough is enough and our members at Sheffield Hallam University have spoken out clearly!”
This is amazing news! Well done everyone 53.8% turnout 61.4% for strike action and 82.5% ASOS
We are very very pleased with this result!
