Ill Health Retirement
Retirement on the grounds of ill health may be considered where it appears unlikely from medical advice provided that an employee will be able to return to their role.
If the employee wishes to be considered for ill health retirement, the University will endeavour to assist the employee in discussions with the relevant occupational pension body (USS/NILGOSC) if they are a member, if they have sufficient service, and if they are considered by the pension body to be permanently unfit for work.
This will allow the employee to find out whether they qualify for, and the financial implications of accepting ill health retirement.
