Documentation
Definition
The constant defines the length of service in the company. This, along with the minimum confirmation duration, defines the vested entitlement.
Vested entitlement check
The vesting check comprises the following steps:
- In the first step, the system checks the employee's age. If the employee's age is less than the minimum age, vesting cannot be applied (even if the extended check is applied).
- In the second step, the system checks whether the pension commitment has reached the maximum pension commitment period. If this is the case, vesting is granted.
- If the pension commitment period does not yet exceed the maximum period, the system then compares the number of years at the company with the minimum pension commitment period in an additional step. If both criteria are met, the entitlement is vested.
Note
The pension commitment period is normally defined using the entitlement period. However, each entitlement is flagged to specify whether and how the preliminary periods are taken into account.
Notes
This procedure applies to statutory vesting. This means it uses the times defined by the Government. It is also applies to company-specific vesting, in other words, vesting that uses deadlines and preliminary periods that differ from the statutory times.
Entitlements that can be defined as vested according to the statutory procedure cannot lapse if company-specific rules are applied. When determining a pension, however, it is possible to specify the criteria used to define the pension as vested:
- According to the statutory regulations only. In other words, the entitlement would only lapse if the company-specific rules were applied, or if no specific company rules exist.
- According to the company-specific rules only. In other words, the company rules are more favorable to the employee. If the statutory regulations were applied, the entitlement would lapse.
