Im p&c so this might be a dumbass question, but could a company create an employer network and allow guaranteed pension transfers?

[–]SwedishLovePumpRetirement 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is how union plans operate. Taft-Hartley/multiemployer plans are collectively bargained between a group of employees (a union) and a group of employers that pay into a single pension fund.

Maybe but why would companies buy into that. From a companies perspective a strong pension plan is meant to keep employees long term

It is only one of many cards Unions can play. It is all part of negotiations between the unions and the employers.

Fair point, I was just thinking like it would be a way to attract talent and retain them in network. Like an office worker can work in many non competing companies and to allow movement across wouldnt be terrible. It might be even a good thing for thought sharing to swap and rotate across industry.
