Plan members

Which pension plans are regulated by the Pensions Division?

The Pension Benefits Act, 1992 of Saskatchewan applies to all Saskatchewan members of employer-sponsored pension plans, no matter where the plan is registered. However, some plans not covered by the Act include:

  • employees profit sharing plans, deferred profit sharing plans, retiring allowances or ordinary (not locked-in) registered retirement savings plans;
  • federally-regulated pension plans, for example airlines, railways, grain handlers, radio broadcasting stations and banks;
  • pension plans for federal government employees, including the RCMP and armed forces; and
  • some pension plans created by legislation of the Government of Saskatchewan for its own employees.
