In 2015 the government introduced reforms to public service pensions. Most public sector workers were moved into a new pension scheme called ‘alpha.’
In 2018, the Court of Appeal found that some of the rules put in place back in 2015 to protect older workers by allowing them to remain in their original scheme, were discriminatory on the basis of age.
As a result, steps are being taken to remedy those 2015 reforms, making the scheme fair to all affected members. This known as the 2015 Remedy.
We have totally redesigned and rebuilt our website from the ground up. Our aim was to make it easier and quicker than ever for you to find the information and support you need to manage, understand and maximise the benefits of your biggest employment benefit after your salary – your Civil Service Pension.
