Pension plans are financial arrangements designed to provide individuals with a steady income after retirement. These plans are typically funded during an employee’s working years, either through contributions made by the employer, the employee, or both. There are various types of pension plans, including defined benefit plans, which guarantee a specific payout upon retirement based on salary and years of service, and defined contribution plans, where the benefits depend on investment performance and contributions made. The primary purpose of pension plans is to ensure financial security, allowing retirees to maintain their standard of living after leaving the workforce. Pension plans are often regulated by government laws to protect the interests of the participants.
