A pension you can count on
The WISE Trust Pension Plan is not based on market performance. Instead, it provides a defined benefit pension, giving you a predictable monthly retirement income based on a formula that considers your pensionable earnings and years of credited service.
- Predictable monthly income for life
- Benefits determined by a defined formula
- Survivor benefits for eligible beneficiaries
- Inflation protection through indexation, where applicable
