Phased Retiral Policy

Phased Retiral Policy.

Employees are entitled to Phased Retiral if they are applying for their State Pension or Occupational Pension (SPPA) and terminating their employment with the Organisation

A gradual reduction in hours may be introduced three months before retiring, for example:

Third month before retiral: work 4 days per week

Second month: work 3 days p/w

Last month: work 2 days p/w

* Pro-rata for part time staff

Employees will have the opportunity to attend a pre-retirement course to prepare them for their retirement.

For employees with 20 years or more continuous service with NHS GG&C, line managers can apply for a Retiral Gift Voucher.
