Employee handbook
Under an agreement with FÉRIQUE Investment Services, your employer gives you the chance to contribute to the FÉRIQUE group RRSP or TFSA, an exclusive, flexible and highly versatile savings plan that is provided without additional administrative costs.
What is a group savings plan?
It’s a retirement plan offered by an employer to its employees that allows them to save through payroll deductions.
With a group RRSP or TFSA, all employees have their own individual account that they own and can manage as they see fit, based on their needs. It’s a convenient and personalized tool to build your retirement savings.
