A PAY offer for lecturers at South West College (SWC) has been accepted by a "large majority" of trade union members.
Members of both the UCU and NASUWT recently voted to accept a pay offer that will see minimum lecturers’ pay point being uplifted to £30,000, and all other lecturers’ pay points being increased by 8.4 per cent, + £1,000.
This will seen an end to long periods of industrial action at SWC.
The unions issued a joint statement to "recognise the hard work of memberships".
"Without their determination this offer would not have been made," a unions spokesperson said.
"The UCU and the NASUWT will work with college managements to ensure that there are improvements made to workload, terms and conditions of service, and that we have an industrial relations model that will deliver for the lecturers of Northern Ireland."
