The Scheme increases the pensions it pays each year to help them keep pace with rising prices. You will receive a letter confirming how your pension has increased each year. You can find out exactly how the increases are calculated in the
Member Guide
Only part of your pension will be increased if, at retirement, you opted to exchange increases for a higher starting pension.
Any pensions that are paid in the event of your death to your spouse, civil partner or dependants increase in the same way.
