Ill Health Retirement
I'm 36 year old worked for RM for 19 years I'm not in the pension scheme my health has deteriorated over the last 4 years got took from outside delivery last march to work in callers office due to falling for no reason since been inside I've had numerous falls inside and my neurologist has diagnosed it as spastic paralysis and my walking has got worse there's day i can hardly bend my leg or lift it I've been on the sick since may and had my telephone interview with OH she said on the phone she was putting in her report that there was no role i could do in RM does this mean she'll be putting me forward for ill health retirement if so what happens next in the process and if i get offered it how much am i looking at as a payment thanx for reading.

Re: Ill Health Retirement
It sounds as if you probably will be offered IHR. I which case it will be 34 weeks pay plus (I think) 12 weeks PILON.

Re: Ill Health Retirement
Keep paying wages for 12 weeks or pay it in one go.freespeech wrote: ↑12 Jul 2021, 19:20I'm not sure PILON is paid in normal circumstances. It may still be 12 weeks notice but it's unlikely to be paid in lieue of notice.
I would have thought, if anything, PILON would be the cheaper option for RM.

Re: Ill Health Retirement
PILON is paid at the same time as the lump sum. The PILON is taxed, the lump sum isn't.
