Please come to join the picket of the GCU campus whenever you can. UCU will be picketing from 8am but turn up when you can. Invite your friends and family to the rally at GCU at 11am. We will be joining with other workers to march to Shuttle Street, leaving GCU at 11:30am. At Shuttle Street we will join the STUC march to the Barrowland Ballroom.

Show the ConDem government that you deplore this unjustified and vindictive attack on public sector pensions.

Defend Our Pensions
Picket, March and Rally

The changes proposed to your pension are an attack on your pension rights – including:

Raising your contributions

Switching from RPI to CPI

Raising the retirement age

Possibly switching from a final salary scheme to an average salary scheme

All of these changes would be detrimental to your pension prospects. UCU believes these proposals are unnecessary and are part of a politically motivated attack on the public sector.
