Ill health case studies

 

This section has case studies to illustrate how the proposals would work in practice. A range of scenarios based on age, length of service and salary are illustrated.

Each of the scenarios set out the benefits a member could access if granted a pension under the current arrangements and are compared against the benefits available under the new proposals.

Background to scenarios

Based on advice from occupational health, the employer understands that the scheme member has a strong likelihood of meeting the permanent incapability criteria.

Existing arrangements

Calculation formulas for the current scheme arrangements are set out in annex D of the full consultation document, Partnership review of ill health retirement, NHS injury benefit scheme and sickness absence: joint proposals for consultation
