From the ground…

I have refused external PhD examining in UK – and refused to do reviewing submitted papers for journals. I have cut out the circle/UCU from the ‘I’m working to contract’ poster and stuck it on the rear car window. I’ll put the poster in the front window at home. I am refusing to go to meetings whenever possible.

(email footer reads: We ask University employers to negotiate, not impose, pension changes…)

Should I undertake work which I have not been fully trained on?

Under no circumstances should you operate equipment upon which you have not been properly trained and for which there has not been a recent risk assessment.
