Moving message: Heineken Pension Fund moves to Amsterdam
1 July 2025Today, Tuesday July 1, the Heineken Pension Fund has moved from Zoeterwoude to Amsterdam. Our new workplace is in ASTAD3, on the sixth floor.
As of 1 January 2021 a change will be made in the funding of pension accrual in the event of full occupational disability. As requested by the pension fund, the employer has paid a purchase sum for the pension accrual of those employees now suffering full occupational disability.
The employer will pay a risk premium for the future. This change in funding means that a provision can be built up, implying that the pension accrual for employees who are unable to work due to full occupational disability can be continued, also in the event that the employer is unable to pay the premium to the fund at any time in the future for whatever reason. Without this change in funding, pension accrual would terminate for employees with full occupational disability.
Today, Tuesday July 1, the Heineken Pension Fund has moved from Zoeterwoude to Amsterdam. Our new workplace is in ASTAD3, on the sixth floor.
The Accountability Council (AC) at the Heineken Pension Fund consists of representatives of employees, employers and pensioners. Currently there is a vacancy in the AC for a member on behalf of the employees. The vacancy arose because the AC member is nominated as a member of the board of the Heineken Pension Fund. The documentation is in Dutch. Therefore it is important that Dutch can be read/understood.
The import tariffs announced by the United States caused declines on the stock markets. Many reports about this appeared in the news last week. We can imagine this raises questions.
