“Goldsmiths UCU have called an indefinite strike. It started on June 8th, and it’s still going strong today.”
By Strike Map
Goldsmiths is seeking to implement a third round of mass job cuts in the last five years.
Workers from Goldsmiths University and College Union (UCU) stood up and took action to defend jobs, so what did management do?
- They imposed 100% pay deductions
- They locked staff out of their jobs
- They delayed ACAS talks aimed at resolving the dispute
As a result, Goldsmiths UCU have called an indefinite strike. It started on June 8th, and it’s still going strong today.
But they need your support!
Take action now – write to Goldsmiths senior management and demand they end the lockout and work with UCU to find a resolution to the dispute.
