The study proposes to assess the financial impact of reworking some provisions which determine the terminal and periodic benefits of workers superannuating/retiring from the Government. A reform agenda would be devised to adhere to the legal canons while retaining focus on the core objectives for a pension system. The agenda could identify provisions that are clearly indefensible and suitable for complete elimination as they may be in direct conflict with the objectives for the pension system or with other desirable objectives for decent work. The study would also assess the value of some suitably defined and chosen parameters of the pension system related to dependency, replacement, and passivity for regular monitoring, and that may have a direct bearing on the sustainability of associated expenditure.
