This is ITP
ITP is a collectively agreed pension that you have through your employer. Your ITP occupational pension gives you, as a salaried employee in the private sector, extra security on the day you retire. You can also benefit from it if you should become ill for a long period.
The occupational pension ITP includes
- retirement pension
- a disability pension, if you are ill for a long period
- repayment cover and family cover – which you can choose so that your immediate family can receive money in the event of your death.
You also have an occupational group life insurance (TGL), which provides
compensation to your immediate family if you die before you retire.
ITP 1 and ITP 2
You have either ITP 1 or ITP 2, depending on your age. (If the company has applied for and been granted ITP 1 for all salaried employees, ITP 1 may apply for everyone, regardless of their year of birth.)
- ITP 1, for salaried employees born in 1979 or later, includes a defined contribution retirement pension.
- ITP 2, for salaried employees born in 1978 or earlier, includes a defined benefit retirement pension.
What choices can you make?
You can invest the money that your employer pays for your ITP retirement pension by making an ITP 1 choice or an ITPK choice (if you have ITP 2). You can also choose repayment cover and/or family cover, so that your family can receive compensation in the event of your death.
