CAUT has entered into an agreement with Johnson Inc. to provide a home and automobile insurance plan to its members.
Johnson is a 123-year old Canadian company and a leader in providing voluntary group insurance plans to organizations such as CAUT. In fact, Johnson is well known within the education sector and some of you may already know them as the home and auto insurance providers for several college and university faculty groups, alumni groups and elementary and secondary teacher groups, across Canada. These include both active and retired members in all areas of the educator field.
CAUT encourages you to support the plan that supports your professional association by calling Johnson to test the competitiveness of your current home and/or auto policies. Please identify yourself as a member of CAUT, and quote your Group ID Code: U5

Many academic staff members use their own equipment at their workplace. University insurance will not cover personally owned equipment in the event that it is lost, stolen or destroyed.
Members of CAUT who insure their homes through Johnson Inc. may purchase additional protection that will cover professional property, such as books, computers, lab equipment etc. owned by the member, but used in the workplace. The coverage is all-risk, and extends to any location in Canada and the U.S.
Life and Personal Accident Insurance
Administered by Lee-Power & Associates, CAUT members have access to Optional Life and Personal Accident insurance coverage through Great-West Life, the largest insurer of group insurance plans in Canada. Your national association has negotiated benefit improvements which reflect the realities of today's needs at discount rates for all members, spouses and their children.
