A new proposal by the European Commission has offered legislation that would let people take the benefits of their supplemental pension plans with them when they take a new job in another EU nation. The bill will let workers who move to a new country simply continue to contribute monthly payments to their supplemental plan the way they did before. The change is meant to boost worker flexibility and mobility.
