Postdoc Agreement

Post-docs occupy the position of a scientific scientist on the results side of the competition for postdoctoral positions. Section 29.7. The University shall make available up to five (5) post-doctrinals (no more than one [1] per department) designated by the Union for the purpose of negotiating a replacement agreement during normal working time, provided that these representatives remain responsible for the performance of all their functions and responsibilities as postdoctoral fellows. The exemption period applies only to negotiations with the employer. Post-callers must follow the usual procedures of their PI or supervisor in order to inform the IP or officer and obtain authorization for this period, provided that the authorization is not inappropriately refused. Basic conditions for the number of SPbU publications created by the Postdoc and published on the science web and/or on the Scopus: 3 publications in two years, 5 publications in three years in case of renewal of the contract. The University and the UAW agree that the choice of the University`s response to obtain compliance with this section or the particularities of an arbitrator`s arbitral award may depend on the availability of means. If the university declares that due to the unavailability of funds, it cannot change jobs to comply with an arbitrator`s arbitration award, the university may re-evaluate postdoctoral fellows, relocate research activities and/or limit research and/or mission. If the union considers that the university`s alternative remedy contravenes the agreement, it may immediately apply to the arbitrator who remains responsible for reviewing the alternative remedy. Second stage: if the Union circumvents the first stage or if it is not satisfied with the response of the first stage, it may, within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of the decision of the first stage or in the event that the first stage is circumvented, within twenty-one (21) calendar days from the arrival of the events leading to the complaint, or from the date on which the injured party reasonably withdrew the complaint. The opposition of the second stage is addressed to the president of the department (or to the dean if no department president is addressed) and a copy is sent to the vice-president in charge of industrial relations. The union recognizes that the President or Dean may decide to designate other appropriate employees of the university to act as representatives of the university for the purposes of this second stage. The President or Dean (or Delegate) and the Vice-President of Labour Relations (or candidate) shall meet with the Union and the Recourse Holder within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt of the appointment of the second stage and provide a written response to the claim within seven (7) calendar days of the meeting.

The requirement for a meeting may be abandoned by mutual agreement. Is it usual and acceptable for a post-doc to go before the end of the contract for one reason or another? If so, what time does notice need to be given? Normally, a post-doc is a normal contract between an employer and an employee and, as such, termination before its date depends on the contract and/or country. It should normally be on the treaty, otherwise the laws of the country should apply. For example, I had 1 month`s notice in Britain, and in Italy it was three months. Post-docs from teaching hospitals are not allowed to register for workshops or courses or to apply for expanded benefit coverage for U of T-Postdocs. . . .
