    Pay Part-time Officers

    Current
      I don't know if this has been raised before, but I find it quite shocking that the Part-time Officers, who do so much work for students and the SU, don't get paid. I'm aware that they get a £300 bonus if they 'do a good job' (not sure what constitutes this or who decides it?) but considering Guest Speakers get paid around £300 for just an hour's work this hardly seems like a fair amount to pay for a whole academic year's worth of work. The Part-time Officers are invaluable and often take on big jobs such as planning LGBTQ+ History month or Black History month events, and running their own campaigns, and I think not paying them is wrong and just perpetuates the unethical use of students for free labour.
