Retired workers who have a pension continue to be paid a certain percentage of their highest annual salary—usually anywhere from one to three percent—multiplied by the number of years they worked for the company. Pensions first became popular during World War II, when a federally-approved wage-freeze meant unions had to negotiate for retirement benefits, instead of pay increases.
