Pensions
Defending your pension at work
It is no secret that we are in a world where sponsoring employers are routinely looking to make detrimental changes to existing pension provision to save costs.It is now quite rare to be able to pay into a final salary pension scheme.
With people living longer, and a rocky investment market, we can only expect this position to get worse.
We need to know when employers are trying to make detrimental changes to work pension schemes so that we can act to defend your interests.
