Faculty question cuts to non-medical benefits, raise shared-governance concerns
Faculty say recent reductions in non-medical employee benefits do not fully follow recommendations from a joint review group.
Some members of Lehigh faculty are questioning the university’s decision to cut several non-medical employee benefits, arguing the changes don’t fully reflect recommendations made by a faculty and staff working group that spent months reviewing the university’s benefits. The Benefits Review Working Group was created as part of a yearlong review of Lehigh’s non-medical benefits.
