The International Pension Fund (IPF) was established in
1972 to help BAC members plan for a secure retirement.
Since that time, the Fund has paid over one billion dollars
to members and beneficiaries. IPF provides pension benefits
to participants, some of whom may also participate in Local
Union pension funds, and offers four types of benefits,
including normal, early, disability, and survivor benefits.
In order to receive benefits, a member must accumulate
five years of credited service as outlined in the plan.
In addition to providing a secure financial future, IPF
also helps to create jobs and work hours for BAC members
through the investment of IPF assets secure pooled mortgage
funds that provide long-term financing for union-built
construction projects employing BAC members.
