As you’re planning for the future, you may be thinking about what you want to do with your pension. As you’re doing this, it’s good to consider the tax implications of how much you’re building – and how much you’re going to be taking out.

Understanding your pension is key to a secure future. With USS’s Retirement Income Builder, you benefit from a guaranteed income for life, tax relief on contributions, and valuable ill health benefits. Plus, you’ll receive a one-off cash lump sum of three times your pension upon retirement.

As a USS member, you automatically build your pension with contributions from both you and your employer. If you earn above the salary threshold, you'll also grow a flexible savings pot in the Investment Builder.
