ESA and Occupational Pensions

MarkRB

I am on ESA Contribution based and in the Support Group , I also receive PIP(care and mobility both at the high rate) and an Occupational Pension. Can someone please explain to me how the Occupation Pension deduction works? I receive £97.08 (Gross)per week OP which is £12.08 over the £85 OP allowed therefore if I understand it correctly £6.08(50% of £12.08) is reduced from my ESA CB allowance.I am right?

Many thanks.

The reduction is actually £6.04 but please don't rush out and spend all the difference in one shop. :-)
