Unite stands up to Cambridge University Press with rally at Guildhall

Unite is mounting a vigorous campaign to resist over 150 redundancies announced by Cambridge University Press.

A mass rally is being held on Saturday 14th February commencing at 12 noon, including guest speakers, supporters and Unite members.

The axing of 133 jobs in Cambridge Printing Services could spell the end of over 425 years of printing at the site.

Unite members have pledged to fight the job losses in both printing and publishing sections with consultations imminent.

Consultation and negotiating meetings with the management are now in process in an effort to stop the print management and the University from closing the site.
