A brief narrative to support the full-time faculty employment figure:
Because INRS is an institution with a specific mission dedicated to research, all of the professors have a full-time status. The collective agreement stipulates that a professor can request to work part-time, but there is currently no such case. Education tasks constitute a small portion of professors’ overall responsibilities, with supervision of graduate students and research occupying the majority. While the hiring of adjunct professors is allowed, there are currently none employed.
The collective agreement : https://inrs.ca/wp-content/uploads/Convention-collective-2017-2022-SPINRS-VF.pdf
In the attached document, an excerpt from the annual report of the Université du Québec indicates that INRS has no adjunct professors employed, and an extraction from the Université du Québec’s database shows that 100% of INRS professors work full-time.
Only 3 courses (ETE 429, ETE 407 and ETE 420) are taught by lecturers, the rest is taught by our full-tim professors. On a total of 247 courses, that makes almost 99% of courses taught by academic staff who are full-time, tenured, and/or eligible for tenure.
