We help construct cases for individual people with disciplinaries or grievances and negotiate with management to improve local procedures.</p> <p>The goal is to improve working conditions as much as possible at the local level. Sometimes we will ask the regional office to help and the national UCU takes the lead with negotiating national pay and regulations. </p> <p>If you are not a member yet, then please <a href="https://www.ucu.org.uk/join">join on the national website</a>.
