end of the final salary pension.
Unfortunately for most of us I think that this is inevitable.
What will replace it? A career averaged pension?
I had the option of a higher paid but less secure job in the private sector a few years ago but chose to stay in the public sector because the overall package of job security, pension and working conditions were better for me and the family.
Besides I actually like what I do.
I don't mind if Gordo wants to ditch the final salary scheme. However he should do the right thing and give us decent pay rises on time and ensure our rates of pay are similar to the private sector!
