UM’s Pension Plan (1993) in a nutshell
New video provides simplified overview of the employee pension plan and its benefits
Whether retirement is next week or 20 years away, a pension plan is a wonderful thing, even if it can seem a bit confusing.
The University of Manitoba Pension Office has created a new video that offers an engaging and easy-to-understand overview of the UM Pension Plan (1993), outlining its main benefits — including 100% matching contributions by UM — and how new employees can enroll.
5 things to know about the UM Pension Plan (1993):
- Matching contributions. When you become a plan member, the UM matches 100% of each contribution you make.
- Employees can enroll on day one of employment.
- The UM Pension Plan (1993) assets are professionally managed so that you don’t have to worry about making any investment decisions.
- By the time you retire, your pension benefit could become one of your largest financial assets.
- It’s yours for keeps, all of it. If you leave the UM, the entire amount is portable and will be transferred out on your behalf.
