How to Retire from Meijer

If you have been working for more than 5 or 10 years at Meijer, you may be eligible to retire from Meijer.  Depending on your contract, you will be vested after five or ten years.  All employees can go to a website to get all of the information that is needed in order to make your retirement decision.
For the Meijer pension website click here .

You will be able to log on or register.  To register they will ask you for the last four digits of your social security number and your date of birth to verify information.

Remember that once you are vested, your retirement cannot be taken away.  If you leave before your thirty years and you are vested, you will be able to collect your retirement paycheck at a later date when you are of retirement age.

If you are vested.  Your Meijer pension is yours.  You are not required to give a two weeks notice, but if you have vacation days you may want to give notice.

Best of luck to you!

How to look up your Meijer retirement account

For years my husband was in the dark about his retirement through Meijer.  Meijer did not have very much information out there about retirement planning until recently.  Even now so many people are still unable to get their hands on this information.

Meijer finally has a website for Meijer employees.  Employees are able to look up their information, calculate how many years are needed to work, when they can get their first payout, as well as their 401K and other investment information.

The website for Meijer employees is  click here

Good luck and I hope you were able to find what you were looking for!
