Casualisation agreements between university and trade unions, and implementation
Dear Nottingham Trent University,
I am writing to request, under the Freedom of Information act, information about casualisation.
Please could you provide the following:
(1) A copy of any agreements between the university and trade unions concerning casualisation, i.e. the use of fixed-term contracts, zero-hours contracts or similar contracts.
(2) The dates any such agreements were reached.
(3) Annual statistics regarding the number of staff employed on fixed-term contracts, dating from before any agreements mentioned in (1) to the present day. If no such agreements exist, then please provide annual statistics for the last five years.
(4) Annual statistics as in (3) regarding the number of staff employed on zero-hours contracts (if possible separated into postgraduate students who are also employed by the university, and other staff employed on zero-hours contracts).
(5) Minutes of meetings between the university and trade unions at which progress of implementation of the agreements mentioned in (1) were discussed.
Yours faithfully,
Francis Higgs
