RCN responds to industrial action by RCN members in universities

Responding to industrial action by RCN members in universities, as part of the University and College Union strike, Dame Donna Kinnair, Chief Executive and General Secretary of the Royal College of Nursing said:

“We have every sympathy with those opposing these pension proposals and extend a message of support.

“Any member of the RCN who wishes to express their solidarity with their sister union, in a personal capacity, during their breaks or free time, is encouraged to do so.

“However, the RCN is not in dispute with the university employers and not a party to this industrial action.”
