Staff at Imperial College London will take ten days of strike action over the next two months in a row over pay and conditions, the University and College Union announced today The dispute centres on management's refusal to increase its below inflation 2% pay award, an offer that members of all three recognised unions (UCU, Unison and Unite) voted to reject.
- Over 200 workers at Imperial College London are planning to strike on January 23rd over a 3.3% pay offer
- The workers, who are non-teaching staff, last took strike action in November.
- Further strikes will be scheduled in the coming weeks if the dispute is not resolved.
- With the real rate of inflation, RPI, at 13.4%, this is a pay cut in real terms.
- Imperial College's latest financial figures shows it brought in an income of over £1.2 billion for 2021/22 and had cash reserves of £1.7 billion.
- The workers include cleaners, technicians and maintenance and security staff. The dispute also involves members of University and Colleges Union (UCU) employed at Imperial College.
- Imperial College negotiates pay directly with staff, so the dispute is not part of the wider higher education strike action involving the University and Colleges Employers Association.
