1 SERPS
British FINANCE ( abbreviation State Earnings-Related Pension Scheme) = retraite versée par l'État, calculée sur le salaireTo get a maximum (but still small) Basic Pension, workers must contribute into the program for nearly fifty years. Originally enacted in 1975, SERPS was designed to significantly supplement the minimal and inadequate Basic Pension. At the same time, however, employers were allowed to "contract out" of SERPS if their private pension plans met or exceeded the SERPS provisions.
