8.5 - Proportion of employees on secure contracts
To combat workforce casualization and ensure long-term job security across our academic and administrative communities, our university prioritizes stable, multi-year employment frameworks for all personnel.
This metric evaluates the proportion of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees—both academic and non-academic—holding contracts with durations exceeding 24 months, explicitly excluding temporary arrangements designated for parental leave coverage. By maintaining secure contractual standards, our institution fosters a supportive and equitable working environment, enhances workforce retention, and upholds ethical labor practices across all campus operations.
