The Institute participates in three superannuation schemes. The majority of scientific staff are in the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) (and the Universities Supplementary Dependents & III-Health Retirement Pension Scheme (USDPS)}; the majority of clinical staff are in the National Health Service Superannuation Scheme (NHSSS) and other staff are in the Federated Pension Schemes for The Institute of Cancer Research (FPS 1636).

Triennial actuarial valuations are carried out for both FPS and the USS/USDPS schemes. The most recent valuations showed all three schemes to be in actuarial surplus.

The NHSSS is subject to a quinquennial review and is funded under regulations for the National Health Service approved by Parliament.

Pensions are increased in accordance with the Pensions (Increases) Act 1971. USS/USDPS and NHSSS finance these increases in full. FPS 1636 only finances increases up to 5% and any additional increase is funded by The Institute. A small group of pensioners, who retired under the previous superannuation scheme are in receipt of unfunded pensions paid directly by ICR. These pensions are increased, at The Institute's discretion, by analogy with the Act.

The Institute operates schemes of early retirement and voluntary redundancy. In 1987/88 three members of the staff received payments under these arrangements, at a cost of £52,000.

(v) Employment of Disabled Persons

The Institute recognises its obligation to employ disabled persons. It endeavours to provide as much opportunity for training, career development and promotion as the demands of its research work and the ability of each individual allows.

(vi) Health and Safety at Work

The Institute through its Safety Committee performs its duties as an employing authority under the provisions of The Health and Safety at Work Act, 1974.
