As part of the institution’s ongoing efforts to address financial challenges, the University of Windsor is offering voluntary retirement incentives to eligible employees.

For members of the Windsor University Faculty Association, a voluntary retirement incentive option — or Voluntary Contract Termination (VCT) per an agreement between WUFA and the University — provides members aged 65 and older an opportunity to retire on June 30, 2025 (or later if they are exhausting accumulated leave banks). In return, eligible WUFA members will receive either a lump-sum payment equivalent to 12 months of regular salary or salary continuance for 12 months.

The deadline to apply for the voluntary retirement incentive is April 15, 2025. To help members make an informed decision on their retirement options, a dedicated webpage has been developed by the Office of the Provost: https://www.uwindsor.ca/provost/VCT-2025.

Staff groups interested in exploring retirement incentive options are encouraged to connect with their unions.
