The revised Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) between FAUW and the University, in support of the Policy 76/77 agreement, has passed by a majority vote of FAUW’s voting members. Turnout was over 65% of voting members.
This vote required a double majority by lecturers and professors to ratify the changes to the MoA. The results by rank are as follows:
-
94% of voting lecturers were in favour of ratification
-
88.6% of voting professors were in favour of ratification
-
90.1% of all voters were in favour of ratification
Detailed certified results are available on the MoA ratification vote 2024 webpage.
These results mean that the changes to Policy 76/77 agreed to in December 2023 can move forward. The next step is for these policies to be approved by the Board of Governors at their April meeting.
The changes outlined in Policy 76/77 will come into effect September 1, 2024.
