QUESTION:
What is the wage scale for sessional instructors?
ANSWER:
Dear Concerned Faculty Member,
Two categories of sessional salaries are found in the TRUFA Collective Agreement: the rate for those sessional faculty who meet the posted qualifications for the appointment and the rate for those who do not meet the posted qualifications. Since Appendix A of the Collective Agreement on pages 142 to 146 does not include up-to-date salaries, TRUFA has prepared updated sessional salary scales that incorporate the 0.35% and the 0.4% Economic Stability Dividends provided to all unionized public sector employees by the provincial government, the first on February 1, 2017 and the second to be applied on February 1, 2018. In addition, TRUFA has indicated the new salary levels that will take effect on both April 1, 2018 and February 1, 2019.
Both updated sessional salary scales are available on the TRUFA website here.
Thanks for asking TRUFA.
