Some background on 4207 health benefits
A health benefit plan has become available in the Fall 2017 for Unit 1 members who are not graduate students. The benefits plan was negotiated for the latest Unit 1 collective agreement. Finally, since 1998 when our local was certified, the TAs, instructors, lab demonstrators, marker/graders and course coordinators who are not graduate students achieved some modest form of real health benefits. It is a good start!
