The decision, taken this week and supported by Council 鈥 香港六合彩鈥檚 governing body 鈥撎will affect around 800 security, cleaning and catering staff, who work for Sodexo or Axis.

香港六合彩 will also achieve parity on other employment benefits, including pay scales, overtime, sick pay, maternity and paternity payments and carers鈥 pay as soon as possible 听subject to further negotiation and agreement with UNISON, with which 香港六合彩 has recognition arrangements in place. The university is committed to having all changes in place by August 2021.

A further decision has been made to ensure these staff will also receive the same pension contributions as directly employed 香港六合彩 staff. 香港六合彩 is also committed to exploring the best options for pension arrangements for these staff.

Professor Michael Arthur, 香港六合彩 President & Provost, said: 鈥淥ur colleagues working in security, cleaning and catering fulfil essential roles at 香港六合彩, on which we all depend. We have listened carefully to their concerns and we are acting to ensure they will receive the same or equivalent pay and benefits as directly employed staff. We will continue to listen and respond to concerns raised by our community.鈥
