Following a constructive meeting between UCEA and the Joint HE Trade Unions on Tuesday 14 March 2023, talks have now concluded on the terms of reference for pay spine, workload, contract types and pay gaps negotiations. These Acas-faciltated talks were dedicated to agreeing terms of reference for the second phase* of negotiations for 2023-24.

This is an important step in phase 2 of the negotiations for 2023-24, with the parties agreeing to proceed on the jointly agreed work necessary on these priority issues.
