Staff at Dundee University are taking action again next week to defend jobs and resist compulsory redundancies.

A year after the university’s financial crisis, uncertainty still hangs over hundreds of staff.

Solidarity with Dundee UCU members fighting for fairness and job security. ✊

News that further job cuts are coming is just another shocking revelation in a year when staff have been told one thing only to be told something different over the number of jobs to be cut and the need for compulsory redundancies.
