Hi Happygirl,
I will search for details on the "an post superannuation scheme". In the meantime you should write to the HR department requesting the scheme booklet. This booklet may be a bit legalistic and confusing but it does cover the rules of the scheme.
Things to look out for in your case are:
Is the scheme coordinated (or integrated) with social welfare?
What wages are superannuationable? Are allowances, bonuses, commissions etc superannuationable?
Is the scheme funded? and if so is the scheme adequately funded at present?
Is the pension index linked at Pay-Parity, Inflation, a fixed percentage, at the trustees discretion or not at all?
Is there a spouses and childrens scheme?aj
Pension is % of finishing wage so surely this facilitates index linking?
