The Insurance Office of the City of Aachen would like to point out that employees will receive the annual "social security notification" from their employers in the coming weeks. This documents information about the duration of employment and the amount of earnings. The data is very important for your future pension. Employees should therefore check the information carefully, as incorrect information could have a negative impact on the pension amount and possible pension entitlements.

The name, insurance number, duration of employment and gross earnings should be checked. If you find an error, you should ask your employer to correct it. Employees should also keep the annual notification, as it serves as proof of the pension contributions paid.

If you have any questions about pensions, the insurance office will help you free of charge. Further information can be found at www.aachen.de/rente.
