Summary
The CERN Pension Fund has announced the upcoming launch of MyPension, its new online portal, according to a 13 October 2026 announcement published on the fund's website. The portal is intended to serve as a single point of access where members can consult their pension information and submit decisions and relevant documents to the Pension Fund Benefits Service, reducing reliance on administrative intermediaries.
According to the announcement, MyPension will allow members to consult their personal information, access official pension documents, run simulations, submit requests online and complete administrative procedures. The fund states that the portal will support members at key stages of their pension journey, including the end of their contract, where end-of-contract pension formalities and requests for transfers can be handled through a simple, guided online process.
Security features include strictly personal access protected by enhanced two-factor authentication. The fund said personal data and benefit-related information will be handled securely and confidentially.
The portal is initially open to active members, with beneficiaries to be onboarded in a subsequent phase. Access is being opened progressively from the beginning of October 2026 over the following weeks. Members will receive an activation email at their professional address (@cern.ch or @eso.org) containing a User ID and a unique activation link for setting a password. No action is required before that email arrives, and members will not all receive it at the same time.
The CERN-ESO Pension Fund has approximately 3,700 members and 3,600 beneficiaries, according to information published on the fund's site, and the fund is managed by a CERN unit with departmental rank. The fund describes MyPension as part of its commitment to more accessible, transparent services.
