OTF and government are committed to making responsible decisions to keep the pension plan viable and affordable. They, along with pension plan management, have hired an independent firm to survey randomly selected members over the next two years to gather information on members’ awareness of funding challenges and their preferences for future changes that may be required to keep the plan healthy.

No action is required before 2014 when the plan’s next funding valuation is required by the provincial pension regulator.

For more information on two surveys taking place this winter, see Members being surveyed on retirement issues.
