NOUS SOMMES TOUS CHARLIE

Annwyl Aelod,

Byddwch yn cofio, yn unol â'r penderfyniadau a wnaethpwyd yng nghyfarfod arbennig y Pwyllgor Addysg Uwch (HEC) ar 19 Tachwedd 2015, bod y boicot marcio ac asesu wedi’i ohirio tan 16 Ionawr 2015.

Er mwyn cydymffurfio â gofynion cyfreithiol, mae UCU heddiw wedi cyflwyno rhybudd newydd o weithredu diwydiannol i Brifysgol Aberystwyth, ynghyd â’r sefydliadau addysg uwch eraill.

Mae'r gweithredu diwydiannol hwn yn weithred barhaol heb fod yn streic mewn ffurf boicot asesu a marcio a bydd yn dechrau ar ddydd Gwener 16 Ionawr 2015.

Mae cyfarfod arbennig o’r HEC wedi'i alw ar gyfer dydd Mercher 14 Ionawr fel y gall y negodwyr gyflwyno’r datblygiadau diweddaraf.  Bydd adroddiad o’r cyfarfod hwn yn cael ei anfon at y canghennau cyn gynted â phosib.

Gofynnodd yr undeb i'w haelodau  bleidleisio yn erbyn cynigion cyntaf y cyflogwyr ac wedi hynny fe gyflwynon ni ein gwrthgynigion.

Gellir gweld dadansoddiad o gynigion gwreiddiol y cyflogwyr yma http://defenduss.web.ucu.org.uk/2014/analysis-reveals-huge-losses-proposed/

Mae ein gwrthgynigion i’w gweld yma: {HYPERLINK "http://defenduss.web.ucu.org.uk/ucu-proposals/" \t "_blank"}

Os fydd y gweithredu hwn yn digwydd bydd angen i ni sefydlu is-grŵp lleol a fyddai’n cwrdd am tua hanner awr bob wythnos ar gyfer cyflwyno a derbyn diweddariadau  a chyfleu i'r aelodau yr hyn sy'n digwydd ac unrhyw weithredu bydd angen ei wneud.

Os oes gennych ddiddordeb mewn bod yn rhan o’r is-grŵp hwn a wnewch chi adael i mi wybod.

Dear Member

You will recall that in line with the decisions made at the special Higher Education Committee (HEC) meeting on 19 November 2014, the marking and assessment boycott was suspended until 16 January 2015.

To comply with legal requirements, UCU has today served a fresh notice of industrial action on Aberystwyth University, along with other HEIs.

The industrial action is intended to be continuous action short of a strike in the form of an assessment and marking boycott and will commence on Friday 16 January 2015.

A special HEC has been called for Wednesday 14 January, to allow negotiators to provide an update on progress. A report of this meeting will be communicated to branches as soon as possible.

The union balloted members in opposition to the employers’ initial proposals and we have subsequently put forward our own counter proposals.

Analysis of the employers’ original proposals are here http://defenduss.web.ucu.org.uk/2014/analysis-reveals-huge-losses-proposed/

Our counter proposals are here: http://defenduss.web.ucu.org.uk/ucu-proposals/

If this action does go ahead, we will require a local sub-group to be set up which would meet for about half an hour each week to update progress and communicate to members on what is happening and

any action needed to be taken.

If you would be interested in being part of this sub-group please let me know.
