UPDATE ON USS PENSION DISPUTE

Annwyl Aelod

Byddwch wedi derbyn yr wybodaeth ddiweddaraf gan Sally Hunt yng nghyswllt yr anghydfod pensiwn USS. Mae hwnnw’n dweud i’r gweithredu diwydiannol yng nghyswllt Cynllun Pensiwn y Prifysgolion (USS) gael ei atal dros dro o heddiw (dydd Iau, 20 Tachwedd, 2014), tan ar ôl cyfarfod y Pwyllgor Negodi ddydd Iau, 15 Ionawr, 2015.
Mae UCU ac UUK wedi cytuno i gyfres o gyfarfodydd negodi rhwng nawr a mis Ionawr.
Cytunodd HEC ar y sail uchod y dylai’r boicot asesu presennol, ynghyd ag unrhyw streicio arfaethedig yn ymwneud â thocio tâl cosbol, gael ei atal ar unwaith tan 16 Ionawr 2015.
Cytunodd HEC hefyd petai unrhyw gamau dilynol gan UCU y flwyddyn nesaf yn denu tocio cyflog gosbol, yna byddai yna streic genedlaethol yn dilyn.

Gan hynny, mae’r cyfarfod amserlen Anghydfod, a gynlluniwyd ar gyfer heddiw yn swyddfa’r Undeb ar y cyd, wedi ei ganslo.

Dymuniadau gorau,

Dear Member

You will have received an update from Sally Hunt in connection with the USS pension dispute.  This outlines that the industrial action in relation to the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS)

has been suspended as from today (Thursday 20^th November 2014), until after the Joint Negotiating committee meeting scheduled for Thursday 15^th January 2015.

Both UCU and UUK have agreed to a series of negotiating meetings between now and January. 

HEC agreed on the above basis that the current boycott of assessment and any planned  strike action related to punitive pay docking should be suspended with immediate effect until 16 January 2015.

HEC also agreed that should any subsequent action by UCU next year attract punitive pay docking then national strike action would follow.

The schedule Dispute meeting planned for today in the Joint Union office, is therefore, cancelled.
