University staff in Dumfries have started a five-day strike over pay, work conditions and pensions.
Members of the University and College Union (UCU) at Glasgow University’s Crichton campus are in a dispute with Universities UK and the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) over the issues.
The UCU said last month that employers forced through pension cuts which will see a 35 per cent reduction in a typical member’s guaranteed retirement income.
