When should employers stop paying occupational pensions?

An employee has the right to work until the age of 68, according to the Employment Protection Act. However, an employee who wishes to continue working after the age of 68 may do so by agreement with the employer.

However, the employer stops paying occupational pension when the employee reaches the age of 65. This means that an employee who continues to work after the age of 65 does not earn any more towards his or her occupational pension. This is the case for most occupational pensions, but it can be changed. By agreement between the employee and the employer, occupational pensions can continue to be paid up to an older age.
