The design of OMERS Pension Plans is a fundamental mandate of the OMERS Sponsors Corporation. This includes determining plan benefits and member and employer contribution rates.

Plan changes are considered throughout the year and before any decisions are made, the SC Members review all relevant information and seek advice and counsel. Although there is a defined timeline and protocol governing how (and when) decisions are made about Specified Plan Changes, they and Other Plan Change proposals receive attention and due diligence, and Stakeholders are kept informed.
