What happens to the company pension in the event of termination?

If you quit your job, the employer does not continue to pay the contributions for the occupational pension scheme. However, the contract between you and the insurance company remains in force. However, your tax benefits usually cease when your employment relationship ends. This is because they are usually linked to a contribution by the employer to the occupational pension scheme. If the occupational pension scheme is paid out at a later date, the amount paid out must be declared as a pension for income tax purposes.
