MEMBER CONTRIBUTIONS
As part of the restructuring of the Plan, employers will contribute up to an additional 20¢ per hour, per employee.
While historically CCWIPP pension contributions have been negotiated with the employer in amounts determined by the collective bargaining agreement, the restructuring plan proposes that active members will begin making contributions.
Starting July 1, 2015, the amount of your Member contribution will depend on the number of years of continuous service you have in the Plan.|
PERIOD OF CONTINUOUS SERVICE |
MEMBER CONTRIBUTION RATE |
| **Less than 2 years | 0¢/hour |
| 2 years but less than 8 years | 22¢/hour |
| 8 or more years | 40¢/hour |
*If you become a Plan Member before 2 years of continuous service, Member contributions will commence when you become a Plan Member at the rate of 22¢ per hour until you have 8 years of continuous service.
If your employer's contribution rate is less than 50¢ per hour (not including additional employer contributions) as at July 1, 2015, your required Member contributions will be lower and will be prorated over 60¢.
