To comply with the Province of Ontario’s public sector taxable benefit guidelines and updated regulations from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, the University of Windsor has introduced a Mobile Phone Procurement and Subscription Policy, effective immediately.

Under the new policy, a UWindsor corporate cell phone plan subscriber needs to meet the following criteria to remain on or enroll in the corporate plan:

1. Be a current University of Windsor employee who possesses a mobile device or monthly plan paid by the University;

2. Be in a role that meets one or more of the business necessity conditions listed in the policy; and

3. Have their manager’s or principal investigator’s approval.

In the coming weeks some individuals currently enrolled in the University of Windsor’s Corporate Cell Phone Plan through Telus will be notified via email about the status of their account.

For individuals who are not eligible for the Corporate Cell Phone Plan, the Employee Personal Plan (EPP) remains available through Telus. The EPP is not impacted by the new policy and provides current and retired UWindsor employees with exclusive savings on smartphones, tablets, phone plans, internet, streaming services and home security.
