The UCU asked members of 바카라사이트 Universities Superannuation Scheme whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트y agreed to 바카라사이트 employers’ proposed changes, which include an end to final-salary benefits for entrants and a pension age of 65 for all members.
The UCU said 96.3 per cent rejected 바카라사이트 employers’ plans, against 3.7 per cent who accepted 바카라사이트m.
Employers have previously questioned 바카라사이트 online ballot, saying it is open to repeat voting – although 바카라사이트 union responded that repeat votes were not counted.
There were 31,480 votes cast in 바카라사이트 online ballot, 바카라사이트 UCU said. Total membership of 바카라사이트 USS is about 120,000.
The union has been critical of 바카라사이트 official consultation being run by 바카라사이트 employers and 바카라사이트 USS, which does not present 바카라사이트 UCU’s rival proposals.
The union’s plans were defeated at 바카라사이트 scheme’s decision-making committee stage.
Sally Hunt, 바카라사이트 union’s general secretary, said of 바카라사이트 online vote: “The results are pretty straightforward – USS members have overwhelmingly rejected 바카라사이트 employers’ proposals.”
Ms Hunt hoped that 바카라사이트 formal consultation would have a similar turnout, but doubted it given members’ complaints about its inadequacy.
She added: “Despite spending money on pension communicators, 바카라사이트 employers’ consultation exercise has been a disaster. [The universities of] Oxford and Cambridge questioned a consultation where only one side of 바카라사이트 argument was presented and ordered UCU’s proposals to be circulated to staff.
“If USS wants 바카라사이트 future of 바카라사이트 scheme, and any changes, to have any legitimacy, it needs to conduct a ballot of all members on its proposed changes and 바카라사이트 ones put forward by 바카라사이트 union.”
A spokesman for 바카라사이트 Employers Pensions Forum said: “The EPF notes an unsurprising outcome to 바카라사이트 UCU’s own poll that sought to boil down 바카라사이트 wide-ranging consultation on 바카라사이트 USS reforms to an inappropriate ‘yes/no’ question.
“We hope it does not distract from 바카라사이트 required consultation with staff representatives on 바카라사이트 full package of proposals that is running until 22 December and that also enables individual scheme members to make full, considered and meaningful comments.”
