19 February 2019

In today's email:

  1. ESafe information technology monitoring software

  2. FE pay dispute

  3. FE workload dispute

  4. HE pay & equality ballot

  5.  Cardiff University UCU ballot on no compulsory redundancies 

1. ESafe information technology monitoring software
We are increasingly aware of instances where colleges are implementing the use of a new IT monitoring software, Esafe. We are mindful that this could lead to members' finding themselves in some difficulties. Therefore, staff should be careful when using college networks and only conduct personal searches, social media use and personal communications from their home networks. It is advisable for you to familiarise yourself with your institution's IT, ESafe and Social Media policies. Read more about Esafe here.

2. FE pay dispute
Apologies that the information under this heading has not been translated, but time constraints made this impossible. The joint trade unions met on Friday 15 February. The majority of joint trade union members voted to accept the revised pay offer and we have therefore withdrawn the dispute over pay. Members should be able to expect the backdated pay increase in their March pay.

3. FE workload dispute
The second meeting with ColegauCymru to discuss workload is taking place today.

4. HE pay & equality ballot
The ballot closes on Friday 22 February. Time is running out; make sure you vote now if you want your vote to count.

5. Cardiff University UCU ballot on no compulsory redundancies
The ballot closes on Friday 22 February, so if you haven't already voted, do it now!

1. Meddalwedd Monitro Technoleg Gwybodaeth E-Safe
Rydym yn gynyddol ymwybodol o achosion lle mae colegau yn defnyddio meddalwedd monitro TG newydd, sef Esafe. Rydym yn ymwybodol y gallai hyn arwain at aelodau'n cael eu hunain mewn trafferthion. Felly, dylai staff fod yn ofalus wrth ddefnyddio rhwydweithiau colegau, a chynnal chwiliadau personol, defnyddio'r cyfryngau cymdeithasol ac anfon negeseuon personol o'u rhwydweithiau cartref yn unig. Awgrymir eich bod yn ymgyfarwyddo â pholisïau TG, Esafe a chyfryngau cymdeithasol eich sefydliad. Darllenwch fwy am Esafe yma.
