Job security and protections from artificial intelligence have also been raised as major issues in the dispute.

It’s the latest in a series of events between staff and the university, dating back to the announced restructuring earlier this year which was later scrapped.

The university also announcing a voluntary redundancy scheme this week.

The strike is not connected to either of these events.
