The joint trade unions have written to the principal at UHI regarding the lack of collaboration as the proposals for transformation progress.
Officials from the EIS, UCU, UNISON, GMB, and Unite have been invited to attend collective engagement meetings with Max Brown, Michael Boylan, Joe Wright and Lorna Walker since February 2025.
There have been several meetings to date, but the sister unions’ position is that there has been no meaningful consultation at these meetings.
For clarification, meaningful consultation allows trade unions to have input into the processes and procedures informing decision-making, prior to decisions being made i.e. having the ability to influence decisions.
