My partner has previously worked in the health service and clocked up 10 years service.She is 40 years old. She worked roughly from 1994-2004. She is a "pre-1995" person so she can retire at 60, and does not have a state contributory pension. She now wants to start working again for HSE. Is her previous pension "ring fenced", or is her previous service now under the terms of the new single public service scheme where she has to work to 68 and part of her pension is from the state contributory pension? Basically, does anyone know how "re-entry" to the public service works pension wise, for people who are "pre-1995". Thank you in advance.
