As explained in the Strike FAQ, UCU members should not read or respond to any emails whilst on strike, and should immediately delete, unread, all emails on return to work — except for those from students. During strike periods, we ask you to put an out-of-office auto-reply on your emails. We suggest the following text — though of course you may edit this if you prefer.

I am currently unavailable as I am striking over University UK’s imposition of a cut of up to a 40% in my pension.
Background to the dispute can be found here:
https://www.uculeicester.org.uk/ucu/what-is-wrong-with-uss/
The University of Leicester is central to the dispute: its vice-chancellor, Professor Paul Boyle, is a member of UUK’s executive board and thus responsible for this attack.
You can support us by joining UCU (http://join.ucu.org.uk/) and taking part in strike action.
If you are a student, I will respond to your email on my return — though you may have to be patient. Otherwise, I will not be reading this email, and will delete it, unread, on my return. |
Guidance on how to set-up out-of-office replies for Outlook is available here.
