We’re approaching the busiest time of year for retirement applications and we need your help.

We ask that your service and salary submissions are right first time as this is key to helping us calculate retirement quotes and processing applications accurately, reducing recalculation and overpayment situations. As well as benefitting your staff, accurate submissions also limit duplication of work for you.

To help you further, we've put together a factsheet setting out all the information to explain what goes into a member's retirement calculation (PDF, 68 KB) (This link opens in a new window).

Staff affected by the Transitional Protection changes should be encouraged to apply for retirement as normal. Additional information related to Transitional Protection can be found on our bespoke webpages.

We’ve also a dedicated member retirement webpage focusing on member retirement on our website and the option to join one of our Retirement Options webinars. Our brilliant training team will run through example calculations, talk about the changes in the Scheme due to Transitional Protection and discuss the retirement options and process.

You can book onto a Retirement Options webinar (This link opens in a new window) today.
