New Zealand Harbours Superannuation

The New Zealand Harbours Superannuation Plan was established in 1985, in response to a widespread view that a better and more flexible means of saving for retirement should be provided to employees of the then Harbour Boards–a summarised overview of the Plan is given in Plan Update.

The Plan provides benefits to members in the event of retirement, death, total and permanent disablement, sickness or injury, redundancy and resignation.

The Plan is governed by up to nine Trustees, of whom up to four are appointed by the Rail & Maritime Transport Union, up to four by those appointed trustees, with a further trustee (who is to be the chair) being elected unanimously by all trustees.

The Plan has two separate schemes, the Superannuation Scheme and the KiwiSaver Scheme.   If you are interested in becoming a member and joining either scheme see the New Members page.
