Check Your Annual Pension Statements!
AFM-EPF Pension Fund Statements are in the mail, and if pension contributions have been made on your behalf, you should have received one by now.

Please note that generally pension is based on scale wages, which means that the wages listed on the report may be less than the gross amount you were paid for that year.09/01/15 That Union Thing
