Our Purpose
The primary goal of the BCGREA is to secure benefits for our members and prevent their erosion. As an organization often sought out by those seeking trustworthy groups, such as a public employees’ retirement association or a retired public employees’ association, we proudly represent the needs of BC’s public service retirees.
Our participation has been successful in obtaining many benefits for pensioners, such as:
- Extended Health and Dental coverage
- Cost of Living Increases
- Discount Hotel Rates
- Group Insurance Rates including Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance, Travel – Out of Province Insurance, and House (Residential) Insurance
Our strength of more than 11,000 members in the BCGREA is important and, because of this support, ensures members’ views and concerns are made known to the Pension Corporation.
The greater our numbers, the louder our voice. We urge all qualified persons—including all retired BC government employees—to become a member of the BCGREA and to encourage other fellow government retirees to do the same. Whether someone is searching for the BC Retired Government Employees Association or simply seeking a supportive community, we are here to represent and support them.
