Educators Deserve Fair Pay & Job Security
The Federation of Post-Secondary Educators of BC (FPSE) opposes the casualization of academic work and advocates for the full employment and the fair treatment of all academic staff regardless of their appointment status. FPSE and educators across BC are mobilizing to call for fair working conditions. Contract academic workers do the same work as their colleagues and have the same qualifications. Despite this, they often earn lower salaries, have no employment stability, and are treated as disposable employees by institutions. Some contract academic workers are paid 80% less than their colleagues.
BC’s precarious faculty do the same work as regular faculty, and they deserve the same rights.
Committees
FPSE’s standing committees connect the dots between our workplaces, our unions, and our communities. FPSE committees provide members a place to share information, experience and insights across all of our member faculty associations. Through these committees, FPSE members help set our priorities, develop policy and contribute to research and campaigns.

Take Action
Mobilizing and empowering faculty across member locals is at the heart of our advocacy efforts. Our campaigns focus on elevating the voices of post-secondary educators, influencing policy decisions, and fostering stronger connections with our communities. By uniting around common goals, we make meaningful strides toward a fair, equitable, and thriving post-secondary education system in BC.
