Different terms and conditions related to superannuation and retirement may apply to a candidate where they were a member of a pre existing public service pension scheme (non Single Scheme) after 1st January 2013 and any subsequent breaks in public service employment (either pensionable or not) have been 26 weeks or less. The pension entitlements and maximum retirement age, if applicable, of such appointees will be determined in the context of their public service employment history. IMPORTANT NOTICE Candidates should note that different terms and conditions may apply if, immediately prior to appointment, the appointee is already a serving civil or public servant. The above outlines the principal conditions of service and is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all terms and conditions of employment which will be set out in the employment contract to be agreed with the successful candidate. ADDITIONAL SUPERANNUATION CONTRIBUTION Successful candidates who are members of a public service pension scheme are subject to the Additional Superannuation Contribution in accordance with the Public Service Pay and Pensions Act 2017. The Additional Superannuation Contribution is in addition to any personal pension contributions (otherwise known as main scheme contributions) and Spouses and Children’s Scheme contributions that are payable in accordance with the rules of any pension scheme. LIMITATION ON PENSION ACCRUAL Section 52 (6) of the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act, 2012 limits the amount of pensionable service an individual may accrue across all pre existing public service schemes (non Single Scheme terms) to a maximum of forty years or equivalent. Where pensionable service exceeds forty years on 28th July 2012, section 52 (7) provides that they may retain the benefit of that service. This may have implications if the appointee acquired pension rights in a previous public service employment. Department of Public Expenditure and Reform Circular 13/2020, which is available on the website https://www.gov.ie/en/circulars/ , provides guidance on the method of calculating pension entitlements in such cases. PREVIOUS PUBLIC SERVICE PENSION ENTITLEMENTS AND PENSION ABATEMENT DECLARATION Applicants will also be required to declare any entitlements to a public service pension benefit (in payment or preserved) from any other public service employment and or where they have received a payment in lieu in respect of service in any Public Service employment in accordance with section 51 of the Single Pension Scheme Act 2012. ABATEMENT If the appointee has previously been employed in the public service (including the civil service) and is in receipt of a pension from the public service or where a public service pension comes into payment during his or her re employment that pension will be subject to abatement in accordance with the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012. ENTITLEMENTS UNDER ISER OR VER SCHEMES The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform should be consulted in advance of formal appointment in all cases where the prospective appointee availed of a previous Incentivised Scheme for Early Retirement, Voluntary Redundancy or Voluntary Early Retirement arrangement in the public service. The implications of their new appointment on their Incentivised Scheme for Early Retirement, Voluntary Redundancy or Voluntary Early Retirement payment or pension entitlements will be determined by the terms and policies governing the relevant scheme. An example includes: Department of Education and Skills Early Retirement Scheme for Teachers Circular 102/2007 The Department of Education and Skills introduced an Early Retirement Scheme for Teachers. It is a condition of the Early Retirement Scheme that, with the exception of the situations set out in paragraphs 10.2 and 10.3 of the relevant circular documentation, and with those exceptions only, if a teacher accepts early retirement under Strands 1, 2 or 3 of this scheme and is subsequently employed in any capacity in any area of the public sector, payment of pension to that person under the scheme will immediately cease. Pension payments will, however, be resumed on the ceasing of such employment or on the person’s 60th birthday, whichever is the later, but on resumption, the pension will be based on the person’s actual reckonable service as a teacher (that is, the added years previously granted will not be taken into account in the calculation of the pension payment).
