Death

In the event of a participant’s death, the participant’s spouse or other beneficiary must notify the Pension Fund Office and submit a copy of the participant’s death certificate as soon as possible. In the event of a beneficiary’s death, notify the Pension Fund Office and update your beneficiary designation.

Anytime is a good time to update pension information or change beneficiaries.
