The West Midlands Pension Fund is part of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS), providing a valuable part of the pay and reward package for eligible employees.

There are a number of benefits for scheme members, such as:

  • A secure pension
  • Flexibility to pay more or less
  • Immediate life cover
  • Ill health retirement options

For more information, please visit LGPS Member - Key Features.

How much will you pay?

The rate of contributions you will pay is based on how much you are paid. When you join, and every April afterwards, your employer will determine your contribution rate. If you have more than one job your contribution rate will be determined separately for each job. If your pay changes throughout the year, your employer may decide to review your contribution rate at that time, rather than wait until the following April.

To access the member contribution rates, please visit LGPS Member - How much will you pay?

Alternatively, you can access the member contribution rate calculator by visiting the LGPS Member - Contribution Calculator.
