CHRP Recertification Points: 2.0

As Human Resources Professionals, chances are we have or will have pension administration in our portfolio at some point in our careers, or we will have to help employees understand how pensions work as part of their overall compensation package.

Pension management has received more attention in the last number of years than ever before.  Human Resources plays an important role in ensuring the right messages are getting to our employees.

This session will provide foundational knowledge on the types of pension plans and the trend towards Defined Contribution plans, effective ways to communicate plans to employees to increase understanding, and the importance of ensuring proper oversight within an organization.

Specifically, the session will cover:

• Types of Pension Plans and what they mean to an employee's retirement
• The trend toward Defined Contribution Plans and why
• Effective ways to communicate plans to employees to increase their understanding of their pension plan and how it forms part of their overall compensation
• The importance of proper oversight of pension plans
• What to look for in a pension service provider
