Employee Retirement

On normal retirement at age 65, all employees are entitled to the same vacation as they would have received if they had continued working until the end of the calendar year. CUPE 2950 employees are entitled to their full vacation entitlement upon retirement any time after age 55.

The Staff Pre-Departure Checklist can assist you and your employee to cover off all outstanding work-related items prior to them leaving. There is also excellent information on the UBC Pension Plan website, and HR’s retirement pages have information on UBC’s Retirement and Survivor Benefits Program, a Retirement Checklist and other retirement privileges that will assist your employee with their planning.
