If ending your pension membership is currently available, you may be able to submit the request directly through the employee portal.
Please note that this option is usually only available during an open benefit window and will depend on how your employer manages pension changes.
How Do I End My Pension Membership?
- Go to My Benefits in the employee portal.
- Open your Pension benefit.
- Select Terminate Benefit.
If the option is available, you can proceed with your request through the portal.
What If I Can't See the 'Terminate Benefit' Option?
If Terminate Benefit is not visible, it may mean that pension membership changes cannot be managed through the portal.
In this situation, you'll need to contact your HR or Benefits team for guidance on the process that applies within your organisation.
How Do I Confirm My Request?
Once you've selected Terminate Benefit:
- Select Review & Confirm.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
- Submit your request.
After submission, your request will be processed and your pension details will be updated accordingly.
What Should I Consider Before Ending My Pension Membership?
Ending your pension membership may affect future pension contributions and any associated employer contributions.
If you're unsure about the impact of ending your membership, contact your HR, Benefits team, or pension provider before submitting your request.
