About the statistics
The information under «About the statistics» was last updated 22 March 2021.
Public occupational pensions:
Government occupational pensions provide a so-called gross pension benefit.
This means that the benefits from the pension scheme are coordinated with
the benefits from the National Insurance Scheme that are paid at retirement age.
The total pension payment will be at least 66 per cent of the pension base -
regardless of the level of benefits from the National Insurance Scheme.
The agreement is subject to a collective agreement. Gross pension schemes are always defined benefit.
Private occupational pensions:
The scheme is based on a net pension benefit: This means that the benefits from the private pension scheme provide a supplementary pension to the National Insurance Scheme. There is thus no coordination between Folketrygden's benefits and the occupational pension. The net pension scheme does not ensure total payments in the same way as the gross scheme: If the benefit from Folketrygden decreases, the total pension payments will decrease correspondingly. Net pension schemes can be defined benefit or defined contribution. For defined benefit plans, the pension is normally determined as a given share of final salary, either as a gross level including National Insurance or as a net supplement to the National Insurance Scheme. Defined contribution pension is a pension scheme where the employer pays an annual agreed contribution, normally as a percentage of salary.
