Benefits for Retired Members

Article 40.9 of the collective agreement details what is to be provided to members when they retire.

Note that the Health Plan is designed to reimburse expenses over and above those covered under a provincial health care plan. Once you turn 65, the provincial health care plan in your province of residence reimburses your prescription drug claims first; any remaining expenses may then be submitted to the Health Plan (currently Great West Life) for consideration. This is the case whether or not you are actually covered under the provincial plan (if you are not covered, the Health Plan will still reimburse prescription drugs as if you were covered by the provincial plan in your province of residence).

• Graduate Supervision Appointments Policy                                                 Senate Approval April 28, 2006


"Researchers who are not currently employees of the university, including emeriti/ae and other retired faculty, are normally appointed to the honorary rank of Adjunct Research Professor. In order to monitor these cases, appointment to this rank would continue to be handled by GSRO, with the letter of appointment coming, as now, from the President's office. It is understood that all Adjunct Research Professors are eligible to undertake graduate supervisions, although they would normally be provided with a full-time fauclty member as co-supervisor (who may be nominal) to act as the point of contact with the University. Distinguished Research Professors, as long as they hold that rank, will be treated as tenured faculty."
