Why your CAAT Pension matters

Our goal at CAAT is simple – to provide more Canadians with access to a better life in retirement. The pension you’re earning is designed to do just that – help you rest easier now and in the future.

What does that mean for your future? The pressure to manage your nest egg can be a thing of the past. You've worked hard – when it comes time to retire, you should be able to enjoy that new chapter of your life.

With the features your pension provides, you have access to retirement security without:

  • investment decisions
  • worrying about outliving your savings
  • depending on your contributions alone
  • market conditions significantly impacting your lifestyle
  • crunching numbers to figure out when or if you can retire

Whether you’re new to CAAT or have been in the Plan for a while, we are so happy that you're on your way to creating a better life in retirement – one where you can live in the present.

We'll take care of the rest. Until then, we’re here to support you at every step of your career and retirement journey.
