At its core, university is a community of students and staff. Staff’s working conditions and any attempt to protect or improve them will be felt by students as well. This page is to provide information and resources for students, as well as to invite you to join in the project to build a better university for everyone.
The Community Solidarity group created a handy booklet with information about trade unions, workers’ rights, and how to join. Download it here.
