Employer Sponsored Benefit Plans

Resources Suppliers Regulators



Pensions and retirement savings arrangements in Canada can be divided into three broad categories: employees' own savings; government -sponsored benefit plans; and employer-sponsored arrangements.


Many Canadian men and women consider employer-sponsored benefits to be part of a "good job." These plans contribute to workers' current and future well-being and supplement the basic coverage provided through government programs.
