nrw-university-of-reading

The RUCU Committee ran a series of activities this week for UCU National Recruitment Week, including

  • a recruitment stall in the Palmer Building (blown in by the rain!) on Tuesday 22nd November
  • a recruitment stall in the Agriculture Building, Thursday 24th November
  • an all staff drop in session within the School of Archaeology, Geography and Environment lunchtime on Thursday 24th November.

 

Thursday 24th was also the Anti-casualisation day of action and nearly 60 branches have confirmed activities aimed at unionising staff on precarious contracts and calling for more secure employment in education. UCU’s high profile campaign is getting widespread coverage in the national media. The RUCU committee included promotional material relevant to this campaign on our recruitment stand in the Agriculture Building.

Thank you to all the members and non-members who stopped to chat and take information!
