retirement liabilities Explanation: There is no direct translation that sounds right in English. 過去勤務 means past employment which means currently retired. 債務 is debt or liabilities (of employer in this case) Another possible term is 'employee/retirement providence' -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-11-03 05:47:53 (GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- In major Japanese companies, the pension system is at company level. Since your questions talk about pensions, I assume this is the right one and not ¥'past service/employment liability¥' which is more short term and does not make sense (since salaries should be settled monthly). |

past service liability (PSL) Explanation: 英辞郎 gives this definition, and several other sites, for example, give the same definition. It seems it is often abbreviated as "PSL". Reference: http://www.nli-research.co.jp/stra/stra24-2.html Reference: http://www.lp21.net/kakutei0.htm |
