I didn't know this #employer behaviour was #legal. #Staff who worked extensive hours unpaid (no overtime pay) but when they demanded #fairpay & didn't get it, they reduced their work by 10%. For this they were docked 100% of pay. I was flabbergasted to read that the 90% the workers did was considered to be #voluntary by the #university. Of course, they weren't told that in advance. Meanwhile the management get enormous salaries & perks. ucu.org.uk/article/13319/Union #unions #highereducaton #academic
