As an outdoor employee in a local authority.
I feel the pension levy is implemented unfairly. The different pension arrangements for the various public sectors are not taken into account.
Today I spoke to a 61 year old man who inquired about his pension as he was starting to run into bad health. He had 32 years service and was told if he retired now he would receive 36,000 euro and 85 euro a week. This is in stark contrast to the entitlements of other sections of the public service.
I earn 36,000 a year and pay 47 euro pension levy on top of my superannuation, I also pay class A PRSI. I will have 35 years service at the most and will end up with similar pension entitlements to the above.
The different pensions for outdoor/indoor staff in the local authority should come into consideration when calculating your pension levy.
