This is a note to the Humber Community that the college is aware of the coronavirus outbreak, and we are monitoring the situation and potential impact on the institution. An oversight group comprising representatives from the Academic Division, Communications, Human Resources, Legal and Risk Management, Public Safety, Student Success and Engagement, and the University of Guelph-Humber has been established and will update the community accordingly. All classes, campus operations and college activities will continue as scheduled.

Health authorities have stated that there have been two confirmed cases in Canada to date (Jan. 27), and the current risk to Canadians remains low. We have been in contact with Toronto Public Health. They have advised us that there are no particular actions required, and to follow regular respiratory illness protocols and prevention. As we are in the winter flu season, we ask that everyone wash their hands as frequently as possible, cough or sneeze into your sleeve rather than hands, and stay home if you’re feeling ill. Soap and hand sanitizer dispensers across campus will be monitored and filled regularly.

For the most up-to-date information in Ontario, community members are encouraged to visit the Ontario Ministry of Health website.

Humber takes the health and wellbeing of our staff and students seriously. Updates and more information will be provided as we continue to monitor the situation closely. If you have any questions, please contact:

• Jacqueline Anderson, Associate Director, Health and Counselling, at jacqueline.anderson@humber.ca
• Margaret Fung, Manager, Occupational Health and Safety at margaret.fung@humber.ca.

Sun Life reviews the utilization of group insurance benefits at regular intervals. From time to time premium rates for these benefits are adjusted either up or down to reflect the level of usage, cost to provide these benefits, anticipated cost to maintain the benefits in the future and the cost of inflation.

Effective February 1, 2020 the premiums payable to Sun Life by Humber College as well as the premiums deducted from your pay will be adjusted as outlined in the table below. The Joint Insurance Committee (JIC) of OPSEU, OCASA and College Compensation and Appointments Council have reviewed and approved these premium rate changes. The current employee/employer cost sharing arrangements will continue as shown below.

Employees may see an increase or decrease in the employee portion of the benefit premiums depending on the type of benefits they have elected.

As plan members, there are opportunities to help keep future premiums increases under control and contribute to the long-term viability of the plan through different measures.

• Be a smart consumer: where possible shop around for the pharmacies that have lower dispensing fees.
• Generic version of prescription drugs-ask your doctor if there are generic version of prescription drugs that can properly treat your condition just as well as the more expensive alternative.
• Use government plans and community services which can be found at ontario.ca/locations/health

If you would like to review your benefits, please contact your Compensation & Benefits Specialist.
