USS ballot results announced

22 January 2018

The USS ballot result has now been counted.

You can view the results here.

In a message to Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø members, Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø general secretary Sally Hunt said, 'The results provide a very strong mandate for Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø to continue the fight for a decent, guaranteed pension. The turnout across all institutions averaged more than 58% (a record), with 88% voting for strike action and 93% for action short of a strike.

'Just seven branches out of the sixty-eight balloted failed to achieve the required 50% turnout figure to take action. It should be noted that even in these branches members voted overwhelmingly for action.'

Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø's higher education committee (HEC) meets today to consider the results and we will provide an update as soon as possible.
