How Does a Pension or Provident Fund Work?

If it is a workplace pension fund, money goes into the fund through contributions from employers and employees. An employee cannot get money back from a fund except as benefits according to the fund rules. Employees can also invest privately in their own pension or provident funds where there is no workplace pension or provident scheme in place.
