Question: Do you receive less pension than the premium you have paid?
Answer: Many young people think this is true, but the good news is: you receive more pension than you put in! People who retire now will receive on average two to three times more pension than they paid together with their employer. We invest this money, which makes it grow. We are investing every day and we do this for many people at the same time. This yields to good results: you will (soon) receive way more pension than you have paid.

Question: is it best to accrue pension through your employer?
Answer: That is true. As with many other organisations, pension at Heineken is a working condition. This means that the collective labour agreement stipulates that you accrue pension at the Heineken Pension Fund.
