LABORERS’ PENSION FUND
We’re proud to offer our industry-leading pension plan to ensure your retirement is worry-free. With the Massachusetts Laborers’ Pension Fund, you and your family will receive a guaranteed monthly income when you retire.
Pension benefits will depend on the number of years you’ve worked, the number of pension credits you have, and the age you are when you retire. This benefit is based on contributions made to the Pension Fund by your employer on your behalf.
