Staff members from the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Social Care, especially in Nursing, have been raising serious concerns with ARU UCU around a number of issues relating to excessive workloads and their effects on staff health; the non-implementation of the AWBM; inadequate communication with students; bad management around teaching cover; lack of time for research, conference attendance, CPD and formal qualifications; and lack of clarity with regards to promotion criteria.
The ARU Branch Executive has sent a letter to Professor Jackie Kelly, conveying these issues and demanding that management commit to an action plan to resolve them.
