A pension is good for business.
Offering a pension plan through SPP can help you:
-
Attract the best talent
-
Reward (and retain) existing employees
-
Lower turnover to reduce the costs of hiring and training
-
Build your reputation as an employer of choice
I always thought only big companies could offer a pension. But SPP is so easy and flexible there’s no reason not to sign up.

Why Choose SPP for Your Employees
NO LIMIT ON CONTRIBUTIONS OR TRANSFERS-IN
Employees can contribute as much as they’d like to their plan (within their annual RRSP limit) and easily transfer-in from unlocked registered savings.
MEMBERS OWN THEIR PLAN
Since each plan belongs to the individual member, it stays with them wherever life takes them. Contributions are tax deductible, too.
EASY ACCESS TO LIVE SUPPORT
Members can quickly and easily access our Member Service Reps via phone or email.
THE PERFECT FIT FOR YOUR BUSINESS
Together, we’ll design a plan that fits the needs of your business. Choose if you’ll contribute on your employees’ behalf, how much, and how often, and whether you’ll make contributions by credit card, EFT, cheque or payroll provider.
LUMP SUM CONTRIBITIONS
A single payment often used to kickstart an employee’s savings or reward performance.
RECURRING CONTRIBUTIONS
A regular, ongoing payment (typically an employer match) can encourage employees to save.

MORE MEMBERS = MORE INVESTMENT POWER
With more than 33,000 members and over $500 million in assets, SPP members enjoy incredible buying power and lower fees.
NO FEES FOR YOU; VERY LOW FEES FOR THEM
There are no fees for businesses to offer a Saskatchewan Pension Plan, and members enjoy some of the lowest administration fees, targeted to be less than 1%. Check out more details regarding rate of return and management fees.
Flexibility to Change Your Business Plan in the Future
The structure of your plan can be adjusted or changed at any time at no cost. This includes switching to a plan that requires a change in contribution by your business.
An Employee Benefit That’s Assured for Retirement
Because pension plan investments are locked in until age 55, there is no temptation to cash them in early. The money will be there for your employees once they are ready to collect and if they change jobs they remain members of SPP.
