NATFHE is one of 20 unions representing some 1.2 million workers campaigning jointly against government plans to reduce pension rights. These plans include raising the pension age to 65, requiring people to work longer to receive the same levels of benefits as those payable at 60, worsening the entitlement of current and future employees and raising the early retirement age limit to 55.
