Carleton University is proud to provide a comprehensive benefits program for its employees.

An important part of managing this program is the annual renewal of contracts with our insurers. At this time we review how the plans have been used and negotiate the best rates possible for the coming year. We have completed our analysis and discussions with Canada Life for the 2023/2024 benefit year, which runs from May 1, 2023 to April 31, 2024.

Premium rates for benefits will be adjusted as follows effective May 1, 2023:

Coverage Rate Adjustment
Optional Life No change
Long Term Disability (LTD) – Staff Increase of 14.4%
Long Term Disability (LTD) – CUASA Increase of 14.7%

60% subsidization

Health Care No Change
Dental Care Increase of 10%
Life Insurance Decrease of 14.9%

The actual amount that you and the university pay for your benefits coverage is available on your pay stub accessible through Carleton Central at http://central.carleton.ca.
