College workers announce fresh wave of strikes

COLLEGE workers across Scotland denied a pay rise for three years are set to take part in a fresh wave of strike action.
Lectures across the country, represented by their EIS-FELA union, will take a further nine days of strike action as they seek to ramp up pressure on employers to budge from the “final offer” they rejected in December.
Reacting to the announcement, director of College Employers Scotland (CES) Gavin Donoghue said: “The employers’ offer of a £5,000 consolidated pay rise over three academic years is full and final.”
