Humza Yousaf has told college bosses that “every effort should be made to protect jobs”, as staff continue strike action over proposed compulsory redundancies.
The First Minister was asked about the ongoing dispute at City of Glasgow College by Glasgow Shettleston MSP, John Mason, who said college staff “feel that the senior management is top heavy and overly paid”.
The First Minister added: “Ultimately, it is, of course, for each individual college to make those decisions, but the Scottish Government is clear that fair work must be their guiding light.” However, the EIS-FELA union branch at City of Glasgow College claims 175 jobs are set to be made redundant by July.
“The claw back of £26 million that had been promised to the college sector in the recent Scottish Government budget exacerbates an already challenging financial landscape for the college.”A spokesperson for the EIS said: “EIS members are set to continue into their eighth day of strike action next week, with three further days that week.“Significant concerns remain with the lack of meaningful consultation and an overbearing approach from management.
