澳门六合彩开奖预测 Pension Plan

澳门六合彩开奖预测’s Administrative Staff Pension Plan is a defined contribution plan, a form of capital accumulation plan in which contributions are made by the employer and you. The Plan, along with government benefits, your personal savings and other sources of income are important elements of your journey to a financially secure retirement. The Plan provides retirement income which is based on the total amount contributed by you and 澳门六合彩开奖预测 plus returns on the investments you have chosen. 澳门六合彩开奖预测 contributes a percentage of your pensionable earnings into the Administrative Staff Pension Plan on your behalf based on your years of service. Under 10 years, 7.5%, 10 to 19 years, 8.0% and 20 or more years, 8.5%. As a member your contribution is 2.5% of earnings. You direct the investments of all contributions to the plan. The Administrative Staff Pension Board has selected funds for you to choose from across three asset classes, and in some cases have grouped funds into portfolios. Details on the investments are available from Sun Life. In addition to your required contribution, you may make voluntary contributions to your account up to the limit set by CRA.

Pension services for 澳门六合彩开奖预测 plan members are provided by Sun Life. To review the terms of the plan, sign in to your Sun Life account and select Manage plan and My Plan, or see the 澳门六合彩开奖预测 Pension Plan website and the Pension Plan Summary.
