How much will my pension be?

11:46, 29 Jun 2009

Your pension is based on your total membership and the best one of the last three years' whole time equivalent pay.

Factors affecting the calculation of your whole time equivalent pay:

• if your pay is downgraded (other than as a result of flexible retirement) you can choose to have your benefits calculated on the average of the best three consecutive years' pay in the last ten years of service (ending on 31st March)
• if your pay is reduced because of sickness, the final year's pensionable pay is taken to be the pay that you would have received had you not been sick.

For further information on how your benefits will be calculated, please refer to the scheme booklet available on the Scheme guides/leaflets page.
