Fair Employment Week 2026, October 19 – 23

How Much More Can We Afford to Lose? A message to CCFA Members Hi Members! It’s Fair Employment Week, and normally, this is when I write to the Camosun College Board of Governors to remind them that fair employment matters. Over the years, the CCFA has raised concerns about our employer’s treatment of our Term faculty, including late contracts, inequitable workloads, barriers to regularization, and the uncertainty of trying to build a career in post-secondary education without secure employment. In the past, I’ve asked the Board to recognize the consequences of precarious academic work and to take responsibility for improving the conditions under which our members teach – or at least direct their employee, our president, to do so. Yet, year after year, those letters have gone unanswered, or our concerns have been rejected because of the Board’s narrow interpretation of its mandate. So this year, we’re trying something new…

Know Your Rights: Workload & You

Lynelle Yutani
August 28, 2026

Hi Members! Yesterday, the Union held our first drop-in infosession of the year, Workload & You and one question came up again and again: What should I do if I’m asked to take more students than the normal course maximum? It is a good question, and this year it matters more than ever. As we head into the semester, the CCFA is asking members to be very cautious about agreeing to take additional students, additional duties, or other unexpected work beyond the workload you were originally assigned and agreed to. For the past two years (longer if I’m honest), you’ve…
