Workers at the Queen’s University Belfast are to take part in a two-day strike over pay and pensions.
It follows strike action earlier this year as part of an ongoing industrial dispute with management over pay, pensions, and employment practices.
“Queen’s has financial reserves of over £700 million and the sector as a whole has billions in reserve. “Despite the fact that Queen’s has huge and growing financial reserves, it remains a low-pay employer,” she said. “The size of the increase for those at the bottom of the pay scale is less than half that at the top. Our members are determined to win a decent pay increase and respect from this employer.”
