Occupational pensions scheme member who leaves before normal retirement age without getting an immediate retirement benefit but may qualify for a deferred pension. Alternatively his accrued benefits could be transferred to a new scheme or used to purchase a buy out policy (also called a Section 32 policy). See PRESERVED BENEFITS.

Occurs when an individual retires before the normal retirement date of the occupational pension scheme. Scheme rules and the IR usually allow immediate pensions from age 50. When early retirement is voluntary, the accrued pension rights are scaled down. Members below age 50 are early leavers unless granted a pension through incapacity.
