A copy of this agreement is available here.

 

This agreement will be of interest to all members, especially those who may be contemplating accepting temporary assignments in the UK.

 

We are very hopeful that in a short time we will reach similar agreements with Higher Education unions in Australia and Canada and we are also exploring contacts in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and New Zealand to the same end.

 

This agreement is one more indicator that IFUT is the specialist union representing academics and researchers and related grades and we are uniquely equipped to represent the needs of such post holders.
