How hard will you be hit?

PCS pay and pension calculator - How much is the government taking from you?

Use the PCS pay and pension calculator to see how much more the government wants you to pay while working longer to receive less.

More than 300,000 people have already viewed the calculator and the new version breaks down exactly how much you stand to lose.

Lynne Arnison, 46, is a Job Centre Plus office performance team leader from North Yorkshire. Lynne currently earns £24,230 per year and has worked in the civil service for 26 years.

As a result of the government's plans, Lynne will:

• Pay £696 more per year and £61 more per month
• Lose £20,601 from her current pension
• Stand to lose a huge £42,158 from her pension if she works until she is 66

Lynne was stunned to find this out and said: "As a country we are now regressing and facing a system where pensioners are reliant on state handouts to eke out an existence rather than be independent. This sadly is the future I am facing unless I make a stand against the attack on our hard-earned pensions."

How much will you lose? Find out today by downloading the calculator and entering your details into the spreadsheet.
