Description

In addition to paying the social security contributions required by law (health insurance, accident insurance and public pension scheme), every month the University of Innsbruck makes payments into a university pension fund for all eligible employees. These contributions are invested and offer employees additional retirement provision, invalidity insurance, and survivors' benefits after their employment has ended.

All employees for whom contributions to the university pension fund are made can themselves add additional payments to the pension fund; in doing so, they can increase the respective later benefits and take advantage of the corresponding tax incentives offered.
