Staff at 68 colleges are to be balloted
The University and College Union (UCU) said yesterday that it will ballot staff at 68 colleges as it calls for higher pay, more manageable workloads and a new national bargaining framework.
Along with the National Education Union, the GMB, Unison and Unite, the UCU is calling for a 10% or £3,000 pay rise.
Ballots will open on October 13 and run until November 17.
