About HOOPP

About HOOPP

What we do

The Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan (HOOPP) is one of the strongest and most stable defined benefit (DB) pension plans in Canada. Since 1960, HOOPP has been helping Ontario's healthcare workers build the foundation for a financially secure retirement.

We take pride in being the pension plan for Ontario’s healthcare community. HOOPP serves over 420,000 members and is offered at more than 610 employers across the province. We are committed to providing our members with the lifetime pension they have earned and the peace of mind they deserve. 

Our team of in-house investment professionals use long-term and liability-driven strategies to build a diverse portfolio of investments to ensure we can continue to pay pensions now and in the future. At the end of 2021, we had more than $114.4 billion in assets and our funded status, the most important measure of a pension plan's health, was 120%.

When they retire, they receive a monthly income based on how much they earned and how many years they contributed. They will not outlive their pension.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:18px;">At HOOPP, our driving purpose is to provide healthcare workers with a financially secure retirement. We manage all aspects of the HOOPP pension plan for healthcare workers; we not only administer the Plan but we also invest member and employer contributions into the HOOPP Fund to ensure that pensions can be paid now and into the future .</span></p>
