Industrial action at UCL, 14-16 November 2022

UCL Portico - Some security workers based at UCL are to go on strike on 14, 15 and 16 November, in a dispute over pay and conditions. Our colleagues in security do vital jobs for UCL and we are committed to ensuring that our outsourced colleagues are rewarded fairly in line with our staff. UCL's Security workforce is represented by a recognised trade union, Unison. Following positive and productive negotiations between Unison and UCL, we have invested over £10m per year to harmonise pay and benefits for our outsourced colleagues - who are employed under the same terms and key conditions as in-house staff. In 2021, we were officially recognised as a London living wage employer and have incorporated a minimum London living wage requirement into standard terms and conditions for our external suppliers. When will the industrial action take place and what does it mean for me? . Strike action will take place on 14, 15 and 16 November, and into the early morning of 17 November.
