The difference is that you'd only get 500 hours of pension payments credited to your account. The max being 2080, your pension would just be smaller. If you track your pension through the years, you'll see that the major growth takes place in the last years of your employment.Though the contributions are not much larger than say, 10/15 years ago, then amount credited to your account by your 20/25th year is pretty substantial, so the earnings you're getting are huge compared to say, the first 5/10 years. Like the growth in a savings account. It's compounding growth more as each year passes.</blockquote>
