About

The Association of Retired Faculty and Librarians of York University (ARFL) believes that both the University and retirees benefit from a close and continuing post-retirement association. We represent the interests of retired faculty and librarians and we are particularly concerned with pensions and post-retirement benefits. These include both medical and dental benefits as well as issues such as post-retirement teaching, supervision of postgraduate students and continued access to research funding. ARFL is associated with the York University Faculty Association (YUFA) who bargains for post-retirement benefits on our behalf. We are also a member of the College and University Retiree Associations of Canada (CURAC). ARFL keeps in touch with its members via a newsletter as well as this website and email. We also maintain an internet discussion group which members may join and participate in. If you are a retiree who is not a member of ARFL, we urge you to join us so that we can continue to have a strong voice at York in support of the interests of retirees. A membership form is available from the links at the top of this page (aussi disponible en français). Here are links to the flyer we make available to newly retired faculty and librarians:
