Managing your money may feel like a never-ending juggling act, but by putting aside some money each month into your pension, you’re securing your financial future.
If you’re still employed at DHL, it matches your contributions which means you’re receiving a little extra each month from your employer. Plus, your contributions are tax free.
Pensions are a long-term future investment. Regular contributions mean that over time you’re growing your investments in order to build a safety net for your retirement.
