Welcome
To The New England Teamsters Pension Fund Website
Our Goal - To provide a decent and
secure monthly pension to all vested participants for all of their
retirement years.
The New England Teamsters Pension Fund was established in 1958 to
provide retirement income to eligible participants and their
beneficiaries. The Fund is jointly administered by an eight-member
Board of Trustees – four Trustees representing the Local Unions and
four Trustees representing the Contributing Employers. All claims
are processed at the Fund Office, which is located in Burlington,
MA, under the direction of the Executive Director, Edward Groden and
the Fund Manager, Charles Langone. The
Fund is qualified under IRC Section 401(a) and acts as a multi-
employer, defined benefit plan within the meaning of IRC Sections
414(f) and (j).
Over 9,725 participants have successfully logged
on to the Fund’s website to view their hours of service and years of
pension credit.

Message From the Board of Trustees
The major thrust of the recently passed Pension Protection Act of 2006
is to impose more stringent funding requirements on both single employer
and multi-employer pension plans. We are continuing to work with the Fund’s
actuaries and advisors to assess the immediate and long term effects of
this very important piece of legislation. While we have determined that
annual increases in contribution payments over the next 10 years are
required to improve the Plan’s funding status and to maintain the current
monthly accrual values and adjustable benefits payable before Normal
Retirement Age, this new law will not result in any reductions in the
benefit amounts already accrued by our active participants at Normal
Retirement Age or in the pension benefits currently being paid to all
of our retirees. As current fiduciaries, we remain committed to fulfilling
the benefit promise that was first made by the Board of Trustees in 1958
to provide a decent and secure monthly pension to all vested participants
for all of their retirement years.
