Pensions
The HSC Pension Service for Northern Ireland provides payroll services to over 36,000 pensioners and administers the Pension Scheme for 95,000 current and deferred members drawn from HSC employees, GPs, dentists and employees of other approved organisations in Northern Ireland.
We are constantly increasing our efficiency and productivity by making use of new technology and processes, enabling us to work smarter as a centre of excellence. Member Self Service has been rolled out to all members allowing them access to their pension information on-line.
Extensive guidance material setting out the roles and responsibilities of Scheme Employers is provided on our website ensuring they meet their statutory obligations. Support is available for Scheme Members through the Member Workshops and One to One Consultations provided by the Pension Liaison Service in addition to the wide range of Factsheets, FAQs and Scheme Guides available on the Scheme Website.
