Boycott Trinity

You're not alone! Members are sharing their stories of working from home through our #CUCUConversations project. While some workers at the university were provided with equipment or financial funds to set up their home offices, many were left to manage this alone. Some members are forced to work indefinitely from their bedrooms or kitchen tables because they do not have space to set up a designated work station. This raises health and safety concerns that employers need to take seriously.

#CUCUConversations with PhD student members shows that many are worried about their futures in a sector that is dramatically contracting as a result of the pandemic. Many are concerned about being able to finish their degrees without adequate access to research facilities or fieldwork, and all are worried that there won't be any decent jobs left by the time they graduate. These fears are shared by early career researchers, who already suffer from precarity.

Last month we launched our summer campaign, CUCU Conversations which is aimed at finding unity in a time of social distance and isolation. Members across the university have been getting involved, holding workplace conversations with each other and helping us build our collective strength as a union. Every day we're learning about the issues that really matter to Cambridge staff - the problems we each face in adjusting to homeworking and in our working lives more generally as well as our concerns and aspirations for the future of our university and our sector. Together we're aiming to talk to as many of our members as possible so that we can come out of this period stronger and better prepared to face the challenges that come. Have you been surveyed yet? Do you want to get involved? Get in touch!
