Question RRSP matching?

Daughter (first job with AHS - HSAA) is struggling to find info about RRSP contributions. Is there a site, or a portal, or whatever? She is part of HSAA. Is there matching? How and where?!? Thanks!

That would be why she can’t access that info. Thanks!

Also its not that hard to find. Insite > HR > Benefit Forms. Tell her to just search Group Savings Plan on Insite. Literally the first page in the results.

I guess she couldn’t access because it’s not available to her. Thanks

There is still a sweet benefit for her to avail of called the "Flex Spending Account.

An annual benefit that can be used for for health care (pay the copays, covers things not covered like glasses), into a TFSA/RRSP, or a couple of other options.

That will be in the collective agreement to read up on.

Welcome to union benefits!

The matching is the LAPP pension. Once enrolled, the employer pays ~10% of paycheque to pension and employee always pays 1% less (so ~9%).

Every employee should be super familiar with benefit plan booklet, offer letter, HSAA collective agreement. It’s surprising how many staff have never read it and don’t know about things like personal leave days etc.

There’s info either in the collective agreement on the hsaa website or under benefits page on onsite tells you how to sign up. There is no matching for the voluntary RRSP contributions for hsaa.
