Learn about the Pension benefit!
Pension benefits can be complicated and confusing. To help our members better understand this important benefit, American Federation of Musicians and Employers’ Pension Fund (AFM-EPF) Trustees have created and assembled some practical information including short videos that can be accessed at www.afm-epf.org and going to “Participants”. Each link on the Participant Information page takes you directly to the relevant information.
Members who are participants in the AFM-EPF are encouraged to register on the Plan’s website – if you haven’t already – to receive Plan communications.
