Forms and templates for employers

The LGPS requires employers to take an active role in administering the scheme on behalf of scheme members, your employees.

HR estimates

There may be a cost to you, the employer, where early payment of pensions results in a shortfall in pension funding, for example: 

  • where members take their pensions under redundancy or efficiency terms
  • where you use the discretion to waive percentage reductions following a member's request for early release of pension, or by 'switching on' the 85-year rule protection

Use the form below to request an HR estimate of the cost to members of these types of retirements. Return the completed form to Pension Services.
