Long Service Awards Program

The University thrives because of the fabulous faculty members, librarians, and staff who have spent years working at U of T and have been an integral part of our institution’s growth and development. In recognition of this commitment, the University recognizes individuals who have reached significant continuous service milestones across our tri-campus community through the Long Service Award (LSA) program.

LSA recipients receive a certificate and a lapel pin from the University that denotes their service milestone. The program recognizes all U of T employees, irrespective of their department, Faculty, or divisional affiliation, on behalf of the entire University each fall. It recognizes individuals who reach 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, and 55 years of continuous service to U of T between October 1 and September 30 annually.
