Ft to Pt pension suffer?
Hi a friend of mine is 57 years old with 33 years service.He is currently ft but looking to go onto a pt 25 hr duty. Would this affect his pension much as id hate for the sake of 3 years him suffering a greatly reduced pension by going pt or will it hardly have any effect?

We don't yet know exactly how things will change from 1st April, but RM's original plans were for section B final salary pension to still be based on pay, but section C would go up by inflation. Both are currently based on pay!
So assuming that is still the case, then your mates final salary(up to 2008) section B pension would be reduced if he went part time.
But it would also depend on when he actually takes his pension, because that is worked out as either the best year in the last three, or the best 3 consecutive years in the last 10. See the plan guide for more info.
