Pension Vote Results

In November, 2018, SFUFA members and members of SFU’s Academic Staff Pension Plan voted on a possible transition to the BC College Pension Plan (BCCPP).
The question asked was:

Are you in favour of SFUFA formally requesting that SFU make application to join the BC College Pension Plan?
Yes
No

There were a total of 1174 eligible voters. Of those, 806 cast votes, for a participation rate of 68.65%.

Votes “Yes”: 575, or 71.34%
Votes “No”: 231, or 28.66%

As a result of this vote, SFUFA will be approaching SFU to formally request that the University apply to join the BCCPP, and invite the University to begin discussion of transitional matters.
