In science there's stars who travel the world speaking & collecting awards. But my heroes work behind the scenes for everyone's benefit & get little credit, they sit on committees & do unglamorous admin, write the infrastructure grants & tenure letters, provide mentorship & teach

Canadian wage stagnation - Inflation adjusted change in median income since 2009: In Canada: $312-$2,742 Abroad: $20,000 [Ref @CAPSACPP 2020 National Survey and Longitudinal Analysis] My opinion: Canadian Postdocs are due a raise. @SupportOurSci

Some depressing numbers from the @CAPSACPP 2020 national 🇨🇦 postdoc survey on wage stagnation, mental health and career prospects. Thanks for sharing these @hennybennettphd! Really highlights how important improving working conditions for postdocs is! @psac_86001

We send our solidarity to A-DURESS and all our colleagues who are post-docs in their pursuit of a living wage. When employers withhold salary increases that match inflation - especially for our lowest paid coworkers - they are impoverishing our communities.

Santa says no to low wages 🎅

Post docs at @DalhousieU are out on the Quad today handing out hot chocolate & cookies - they are asking for support as they prep for a strike vote. Dal refuses to pay post docs what they deserve - instead they get poverty wages. Support post docs! #WeNeedPostdocs

From December 4-8th voting sessions will be held for postdocs to have their voices heard that this is not good enough! #LousyDalhousie #LivingWage #Postdocalyptic


Karla Valenzuela, PhD Reposted

@DalhousieU final offer has not made increases to base salary or wage adjustment proposals over previous offers, meaning postdocs could get less than a living wage and would not receive the same benefits as other employees.   #LousyDalhousie #LivingWage #Postdocalyptic

Tomorrow, December 1, we’re holding an information & solidarity rally at the Studley Quad before our vote on @DalhousieU’s terrible final offer next week. Everyone is welcome to come out to learn more & show your support! #LousyDalhousie #LivingWage #Postdocalyptic
