50-Day re-employment rule increased to 95 days for some OTPP retirees until June 30, 2022
While OTF does not expect that many retirees are interested in working in the current environment, this change may extend the number of days that some retirees choose to work. OTF does believe that, if more robust health and safety measures such as class size reductions, appropriate social distancing, use of medical grade masks and adequate ventilation etc. were implemented in our schools, it would not only help protect against potential teacher absences due to illness, but it would also encourage more occasional teachers to make themselves available to the publicly funded school system.
