Salary, Benefits and Pension for Faculty & Librarians

Salary Adjustments and Promotion Increments

Salary increases are negotiated as part of the Collective Agreement, in Article 50.  In addition to “across the board” percentage increases, faculty and librarians are eligible for performance-based increases, arising from performance evaluation process outcomes. Faculty and Librarians are also eligible for a base salary increment on promotion. Criteria for performance-based assessments are set out in the Faculty or Library’s Evaluation Policy and the Unit (Department, School or Faculty) Standard.  Please ensure you have received your Evaluation Policy and Unit Standard and that you are familiar with the expectations for performance, for salary adjustments, reappointment, promotion and tenure/continuing appointment.
