Support staff at five Scottish universities are set to take strike action in a pay dispute.
Unite members including technicians, cleaners and janitors will walk out at Glasgow, Strathclyde, Edinburgh Napier, Dundee and Abertay universities. The union said it had received industrial action mandates from around 1,000 members in Scotland. Strike dates are expected to be released next week.Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: "The UCEA has not only failed to put a fair wage offer on the table, it is attempting to impose a real terms pay cut on all university workers which is totally unacceptable.
"Unite will fully support our university members in their fight for better jobs, pay and conditions."
