Benefits Update 2024
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 of year, we review how the plans have been utilized and negotiate the best rates possible for the coming year. We have completed our analysis and discussions with Canada Life for the 2024/2025 benefit year, which runs from May 1, 2024, to April 30, 2025.
Premium rates for benefits will be adjusted as follows effective April 1, 2024
| Coverage | Rate Adjustment | |
| Optional Life | No change | |
| Long Term Disability (LTD) – Staff | Decrease of 5.7% | |
| Long Term Disability (LTD) – CUASA | Increase of 2.5%, with a partial subsidy | |
| Health Care | Increase of 15% | |
| Dental Care | Increase of 10% | |
| Life Insurance | No Change | |
The actual amount that you and the university pay for your benefits coverage is available on your pay stub which is accessible through Carleton Central at http://central.carleton.ca.
