Many employees contribute to supplemental pension plans, commonly known as pension funds. To find out whether a death benefit is paid under the plan, contact the plan administrator. Contact information for the plan administrator is generally found on the plan statements sent to the deceased. General information can also be obtained from the organization that supervises the pension plan.
Private or municipal sector employees
The Régie des rentes du Québec (RRQ) supervises the supplemental pension plans of private or municipal sector employees whose activities fall under provincial jurisdiction. You can obtain information by calling 418 643-8282 or 1 877 660-6282.
