RECIPROCITY
The Trustees realize that you may work in several locations and in the jurisdiction of several pension funds during your construction industry career. To help you avoid losing benefits when working outside the jurisdiction of this fund, the Trustees honor reciprocity agreements with other pension funds.
There are two types of reciprocal arrangements. They are known as “pro-rata” reciprocity and “money-follows-the-person” reciprocity.
Open the Reciprocity Overview for an overview of both types of reciprocity, and a detailed explanation of how reciprocity may affect your benefits.
If you worked in this Fund’s vicinity and had hours reported here but wish to have them transferred to your home fund, fill out the Reciprocity Transfer Request Form and return it to the Pension Fund Office.
If we are currently transferring your pension contributions to another pension fund, and you would like to stop that transfer, fill out the Reciprocity Stop Transfer Request and return it to the Pension Fund Office.
Reciprocity can be a complex issue. Feel free to contact the Pension Fund Office with any questions you may have regarding your individual situation.
Please be sure to keep your address and phone number updated with our office, so that you are sure to receive all correspondence regarding any specific transfers we are processing on your behalf.
