PA (pension adjustment) = (9 × pension unit earned in year) − $600, floored at $0. Reduces RRSP contribution room for that year (CRA T4 box 52). Pay step = total years of service across all roles, capped at max step per table. Pay scale compounds annually at pay scale growth rate from Jan 1 2026 base rates.
