RED ALERT to UoC students & staff! Managers are planning to AXE development weeks from 2022-3, alleging said weeks have 'no clear rationale' & are 'just a half term'(!?!). Were YOU consulted? How many staff & students even knew of this? More info at UCU branch meeting 17 Jan!

In February 2021, the University of Chester issued notice of 86 redundancies. Since then, Chester UCU has sprung to life, and fought a no redundancies campaign that has reduced the number of posts at risk to 4. This is #OurChesterStory THREAD 1/8

As senior management teams across the country slash and burn their institutions, cutting excellent staff and departments without a thought, Chester’s VC gives us a snapshot of the perks and paybacks those same managers have come to expect. THREAD 1/7

JOIN US to RECLAIM OUR UNIVERSITY! SATURDAY 24th JULY, TOWN HALL, CHESTER. #reclaimouruniversity #noredundancieschester

Reading these words from UCU members it is clear how utterly demoralised and devalued staff at Chester feel. And some staff are still at risk of redundancy. There is only one way we fight this. Every member must attend the Rally to Reclaim our University on 24th July.

Last week our VC accused ‘disillusioned staff’ of damaging student conversion rates. Senior management never look to the role their own actions play in torching the institution’s reputation, staff and unions who speak out are always blamed.

Staff, including those still at risk of redundancy, have been emailed and asked to donate to a retirement gift for the Senior Pro-Vice-Chancellor. The absolute *audacity* 🤬

Heritage & Archaeology staff have indeed received notification this pm that our 'at risk' status has been revoked (with as little rationale as it was instituted). We fight on in support of colleagues at risk: SOLIDARITY! THANK YOU to all who have supported us! @ChesterUcu
UCU Chester@ChesterUcu

IT’S WORKING! Colleagues in history and archaeology have just been informed they are no longer at risk of redundancy. This is down to UCU plus an incredible and well supported campaign by @ArchaeologyChe1 and @VoicesChester Let’s keep fighting, we CAN save every job!

This week we put senior management on notice. They saved jobs in 3 departments, now save them all. If that doesn't happen by Sept 1st, we move into dispute and ballot for strikes in the new academic year. Does the VC want her very own 'winter of discontent'? Let's find out.

@uochester @HistArchChester Even more ridiculous then, that you are thinking of making all the staff that made that happen redundant!
