Student Staff Consultative Forum

The Union recognises that consultation with staff is important. It keeps staff, managers & officers informed of each other’s perspective. It can improve decision making by utilising the skills & experience of staff and it can enhance staff morale as staff feel listened to.

The Student Staff Consultative Forum is made up of a group of student staff who represent your views to the Union on matters of importance relating to your employment, such as:

  1. Terms & Conditions of Employment.

  2. Strategic planning

  3. Operational decisions likely to affect the job prospects of particular groups or occupations

  4. Aspects of immediate work environment

  5. Health & Safety

  6. Training & development

  7. All staffing policies and procedures e.g. job evaluation, managing attendance, etc.

Student Staff Consultative Forum meets at least once a term. You will be paid at your normal rate of pay for the duration of the meeting.

If you are interested in becoming a rep then please speak to your Line Manager or email Union HR
