Engineers Association pension cuts

The Engineers Association has suddenly cut the amount of pension payments without notice. A friend, whose husband paid into the fund for his pension all his working life, has had her pension cut from JD116 to JD 86 per month.

When she enquired as to the reason, she was told that they did not have enough money to keep up the payments so they had to cut the amount. Surely it is not beyond the capabilities of those in charge at the Association to make sure that all recipients receive notices explaining why this was happening? T

Thirty dinars may not seem much for some but for many it's everything! Nevertheless, if one contributes all their life where has the monies gone that should be there for one's retirement funds? There are alway operating fees, etc. but...?

brendamt78My husband spoke the truth in 1964 when he told me that nobody has any rights in Jordan and it has taken me all these years to finally believe him! When the man dies in this country it's as if the wife no longer needs to exist!
