REGISTERED PENSION PLAN (RPP)
As required by legislation, pensionable service for a member in the Registered
Pension Plan (RPP) of the CISVA will continue to accrue during the approved
Maternity leave provided the member indicates in writing that she will continue
to make contributions under the plan. Employer contributions to the RPP will
also continue during this time.
Contributions are based on the amount of employment income at the date the
approved leave begins and are paid in regular monthly payments during the leave.
Pension contributions must be completely paid before the leave is completed or
the ability to contribute will be lost.
Employees of the CISVA must complete a Maternity Leave Contract and
sign-off on the applicable waiver (located on page 2) if the employee wishes to
suspended their RPP contributions during their maternity leave.
RPP contributions must be reinstated on the employees return to work.
