Voluntary Retirement Savings Plans (VRSPs)
Nearly half the workers in Québec do not have access to a retirement savings plan offered by their employers, making it more difficult for such workers to save enough for retirement. As of July 1, employees who do not have access to a group retirement savings plan with source deductions offered by their employers can sign up for VRSPs. Political science professor Patrik Marier’s current research analyzes the impact of aging populations on a number of public policy fields including pensions. He is available to discuss VRSPs.
