Your Right to a Lifelong Pension
In addition to the right to a lifelong retirement pension, you earn the right to a disability pension due to reduced working capacity. Likewise, you earn your spouse or partner the right to a spouse's pension upon death and your children the right to a child's pension if your working capacity is significantly reduced or you pass away.
Lifelong Pension
You get a guarantee for lifelong pension payments from the time you begin to draw your pension. Payments will reflect your contributions throughout your working life and returns on the fund's investments.
