Updated guidance on retiring from UCL now available

At UCL we have no compulsory retirement age, staff may voluntarily retire at a time of their choice, subject to providing appropriate notice.

To make the retirement process simple and straightforward we’ve reviewed our Retirement Guidance.   Updates include:

• Linking the guidance to the Pre-Retirement Planning training course.   The course provides an introduction to retirement, with help to plan financially and for the next phase of you life.
• Providing guidance on eligibility and the process of applying for the title of Emeritus Professor
• Outlining what flexible retirement might mean for colleagues, in particular if you have a joint contract with the NHS.
• Clarifying arrangements around returning to UCL after full retirement.  Including that; after full retirement, a break in service is required and other conditions may apply.
