About Local 240

Historically, a division of CAAT-A, Local 240 is a member of OPSEU/SEFPO, representing full-time and partial-load faculty, librarians, and counsellors at Mohawk College. As of April 2025, Local 240 became a composite local, also representing part-time and sessional faculty for the first time after their union membership drive was successful. This latter group is currently bargaining their first Collective Agreement.

We work to protect the rights of our members and to establish a collegial relationship with our employer. We provide information, support, advice and advocate on behalf of our members.

Faculty at Mohawk College are represented by the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU/SEFPO), Local 240. The Colleges Collective Bargaining Act (CCBA) is structured so that OPSEU/SEFPO and the Colleges Council, representing administration at each institution, bargain as a sector. The resulting collective agreements are binding on all 24 colleges and all faculty locals.
