University Pension Plan (UPP) is a jointly sponsored, defined benefit pension plan created by and for Ontario’s university sector. It was created with the vision of a strong sector-wide plan to enhance retirement security for faculty and staff at Ontario’s universities.
UPP currently serves over 39,000 working and retired members across four Ontario universities and 12 sector organizations and manages $10.8 billion in pension assets. Contributions to the Plan are funded equally by members and employers.
To learn more, explore UPP’s Quick Guide and Website.
Laurier has been actively participating in the UPP efforts since they began in 2014 and closely following their progress. Now that the UPP has been established, Laurier is interested in further exploring the UPP with its union and employee groups as a viable option for the long term pension sustainability.
During early 2021, Laurier formed a multi-lateral working group comprised of representatives from various employee/union groups to further explore the UPP as a potential option for Laurier. The focus of the working group’s meetings was on building knowledge about the UPP plan design and governance structure, understanding how it compares to the Laurier Pension Plan, and what steps would be required if Laurier chooses to join the UPP in the future.
In July 2023, the University and the WLU Faculty Association (WLUFA) ratified an agreement for WLUFA to provide consent on behalf of its members to join the UPP. Consent is required by at least 2/3 of active members and no more than 1/3 of retired and deferred members objecting to convert the WLU Pension Plan to the UPP. With WLUFA representing all full-time and part-time faculty and librarians at the University, this is an important milestone in the process. Similar agreements will be explored with staff unions over the summer/fall 2023.
Communications will be sent directly to pension plan members at the appropriate stages of this education process. Should you have any questions about the UPP, please contact retirement@wlu.ca.
