About Prospect's retired members group (RMG)

Retired and unemployed members of Prospect are entitled to become Retired Members. They have the same rights to privileges and services, except for the death benefit.

If a member is elected as a National Representative of the Retired Members Group (RMG) they have the right to attend as a delegate the National Conference, however they cannot be included in a card vote but can vote in all hand votes on every motion or subject but using their discretion.

If a member has retired he/she must be in continuous membership without a break at retirement (ie cannot join if a break occurs, join as a retired member without previously being a working member or rejoin). Additionally, if a retired member takes re-employment (after formal retirement even at (say) a DIY store or as a supermarket stacker part time or full time), then they no longer retain retired membership but have to pay the full working member subscription for the period concerned.

Aim

The aim of the group is to look after the interests of its members. We can provide an advice service on issues such as Pensions and any other topics or concerns they may wish to discuss.

Organisation

The Group that currently consists of approximately 22,000 members is organised into 21 geographical areas. Members are allocated to a branch by postcode. South Wales has approx 875 members and consists of members living in the following postcode districts:CF LD NP SA SY
