PENSION EXPENSES, ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
|
||
Per 31 December 2012 the company had pension plans that covered a total of 4 people in the private plan and 5 people in a public plan. The plans provided rights to defined future benefits. These benefits depend chiefly on the number of years of service and pay level upon reaching retirement age. Pursuant to the law governing mandatory occupational pension, agreements have been established concerning defined contribution schemes for everyone who is not covered by the Group’s group pension plans.
