The PNA Salary Protection Scheme

Almost everything in your life depends on your income – your family, your home, your regular outgoings.

The PNA Salary Protection Scheme helps you to protect your salary against the impact of illness, providing you with a replacement income of up to 75% of your salary less any other income (e.g. Early Retirement Pension, Temporary Rehabilitation Remuneration, State Illness Benefit) to which you may be entitled should you fall ill and find yourself unable to work as a result.

The Scheme provides you with the security and peace of mind of knowing that you have a level of financial security in place, while you are recovering. This has never been so important with the changes to sick pay arrangements in 2014.

Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs)

The AVC Scheme provides Public Sector employees with a way to make additional contributions towards their retirement benefits while cutting their tax bill now. At retirement you're free, subject to the relevant Revenue rules, to use your AVC Investment Account to buy the retirement benefits you want e.g. to maximise your tax-free lump sum.

AVCs make financial sense if you fall into one or more of the following three categories:

• You want more financial freedom at retirement

• You want to retire early

• You have a shortfall in Superannuation Benefits at retirement.

Cornmarket Group Financial Services Ltd. is the appointed administrator of our Group AVC Scheme. This AVC Scheme has been negotiated on your behalf and has a number of unique and innovative features that sets it apart from a regular off-the-shelf AVC Scheme.

Update Re Student Allowances and Pay

PNALogo2017200

Dear Colleagues,

I hope this finds you well. As you are aware, the INMO, SIPTU, and PNA have been lobbying on behalf of student nursing and midwifery members in relation to financial support due to the effect of COVID-19 on students on clinical placement this year.
