Flexible Savings. Real Growth. Financial Freedom for Employees.
Give your employees the freedom to save for life’s goals — not just retirement. A Group Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) helps employees grow their money through employer-supported contributions, with tax-free investment gains and easy access when needed.
A Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) allows employees to save and invest money without paying tax on investment growth or withdrawals. When offered as a group plan, a TFSA becomes a flexible, employer-supported savings tool that complements other retirement and benefit programs.
Unlike RRSPs or pension plans, TFSA withdrawals are completely tax-free and can be used for any purpose — from home purchases and education to emergencies or long-term savings.
Workplace Benefits partners with leading carriers like Manulife, Sun Life, Canada Life, and Desjardins to deliver customizable Group TFSA solutions to businesses across Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about employee health benefits
How does a TFSA differ from an RRSP?
A TFSA allows for tax-free growth and withdrawals at any time, while RRSPs defer taxes until retirement. TFSAs are more flexible for short- or medium-term goals.
Are TFSA withdrawals taxed?
No — withdrawals and investment gains are completely tax-free.
Can employees contribute to both a TFSA and an RRSP?
Yes. Many employees use both to balance long-term retirement savings and short-term flexibility.
Can employers match contributions?
Yes — employers can match TFSA contributions to encourage participation and reward loyalty.
Is there a contribution limit?
Yes, the CRA sets annual limits (e.g., $7,000 in 2024), with unused room carrying forward year to year.
