Employees can even earn a deferred vested benefit which will be paid at retirement even though one may leave the employment of a participating employer before retirement age.
The Plan will also pay a death benefit to one's spouse in some cases. The amount of one's pension benefit will depend on how long a person worked for a participating employer and their Average Monthly Compensation as specified by the plan.
