Abstract

The paper analyses the relationship between company size and the attractiveness of company pension schemes – following the introduction of the Occupational Strengthening Pensions Act (OSPA) in Germany. The sample consists of 20 managers from different industries and company sizes. In the methodological part of this study, expert interviews were first conducted and then analysed using the MAXQDA coding programme. Furthermore, the analysed expert interviews were evaluated using quantitative research methods. The results show that there are no differences in the attractiveness of the company pension scheme between managers from different sized companies and sectors following the introduction of the OSPA.
