Pension Plan Information

New slideshows have been made available on the OSSTF website at http://www.osstf.on.ca/Default.aspx?DN=bcb09151-945b-45ad-bdfb-009be359f148. These slide shows were developed to help teachers better understand the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan, and how it is funded and valued.

 

The content of the five separate slide shows - listed below - was developed by a committee made up of representatives of L'Association des enseignantes et des enseignants franco-ontariens (AEFO), Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO), Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association (OECTA), Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF), Ontario Teachers' Federation (OTF), Ontario Government and Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan.

Where Assumptions Fit In

The slideshows are from four to 15 minutes long and each is accompanied by audio narration. The presentations explain how the pension plan works and the challenges that it faces. The website also provides a FAQ section as well email form that allows you to pose questions of your own.

In addition to the slide shows there is also a new website that will give teachers further information: FundingYourPension.com

Members are encouraged to view the slide shows and visit the new website in order to better understand their pension plan, its funding and valuation as we head into a new valuation process.
