This year the pay and working conditions and USS pensions ballots are taking place in an aggregated fashion.

This means that the 50% turnout threshold is applied to the voting membership as a whole. If turnout among the whole membership meets or exceeds 50%, and the vote is in support of action then every UCU branch can take action, even if a particular branch’s own turnout is lower than 50%.

Join UCU today, the more staff that join us the more we can achieve.
