CFIB calls for freeze on Canada Pension Plan premiums set to rise on Jan. 1

In 2021, the employer’s contribution rate for the CPP is scheduled to rise to 5.45% of an employee’s pensionable earnings, up from 5.25% this year. Annual contributions will be capped at $3,116.45 for each side of the equation.

CFIB says that means employers and employees will see their basic CPP premiums rise by 3.8% in 2021, compared with this year, and the maximum amount of income subject to annual premiums paid by each side could rise as much as nine per cent, if a worker’s annual income is $60,000 or more.
