BENEFITS | We Invest in Our People
At UFV, we know our faculty, staff and administrators are the key to our
success. To assist our employees in continuing to make UFV an
outstanding institution, we offer them a full range of benefits and
resources. Our employees and their families are protected through
comprehensive medical, extended health and dental, and disability plans.
A generous vacation allowance encourages a balanced lifestyle, and
excellent retirement plans assist in planning for a rewarding life after
work.
UFV encourages employees to continue their education and growth though
sabbatical and educational leave plans, tuition assistance, and
professional development and training funding and leaves. Our computer
purchase plan creates an economical alternative for our employees to
purchase a new computer or upgrade their existing home system. Our
Information and Technology department connects every employee to the
full range of network and internet services, both at work and at home,
and our library offers on-site and on-line access to research and
entertainment resources.
Employee Services sponsors UFV-wide events, such as the Welcome Back
Barbeque, the annual recognition dinner, the retirement lunch, and
coordinates an extensive program of personal and professional workshops
and activities open to all employees. The UFV Employee Fitness Challenge
is a high-profile activity to foster a healthy lifestyle and
interaction among employees here on campus. Great prizes may be won by
completing mileage milestones in the challenge, but this is only the
beginning. UFV employee volleyball, golf, and rowing teams, and other
group activities encourage UFV employees to get to know one another.
Access to the fitness centre and gym, provided through the Employee ID
card, offers the opportunity for individual fitness training as well.
