PTR | University of Toronto Faculty Association

Working together, we took action and we won

Dear UTFA Colleagues,

Thank you. Three weeks ago, following protracted negotiations and an unsuccessful arbitration, we found ourselves facing an Administration that continued to withhold our July 1, 2020 PTR increases—despite the extraordinary efforts UTFA members have been making during the pandemic.

In response, we launched an online petition and you immediately responded by signing the petition and writing to the Administration.

Where is your July 1, 2020 PTR?

This is an update on UTFA’s efforts to challenge the Administration’s withholding of your 2019-2020 PTR (Progress Through the Ranks). As we previously communicated, UTFA recently took the Administration to arbitration to challenge their decision to withhold last year’s PTR increase.
