When can I retire

Options
Ok so I have a final salary pension which I plan to get on my 60th birthday. Can I claim my pension and continue to work for the organisation at the same time?

    When I retired on an FS pension, they hired me back part-time a couple of weeks later. I counted as self-employed.

    So will I be forced to leave if I claim my pension?

    That depends on the terms of your pension and employment contract. Speak to HR.
    Stephen Covey once said that "when you teach once, you learn twice". That is the primary reason for my participation on the forums as an IFA.

    Although I strive to provide accurate information in my posts, there may be the odd time when I fail. Yes I know it's hard to believe but even Your Hero can make mistakes. Apologies in advance.

    I did; it depends on the company and the Scheme rules..
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....
