Retirement, Reengagement and Abatement - Fire Service policy - Introduction
The aim of this policy is to provide information to Grey and Gold Book employees contemplating retirement or who have retired who wish to be re-engaged by Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service or the wider County Council.
This policy applies to staff in the Firefighters Pension Scheme (FPS or 1992 scheme) and the New Firefighters Pension Scheme (NFPS or 2006 scheme) or the 2015 Firefighter Pension Scheme. The term Firefighters is used to cover all roles up to and including Chief Fire Officer.

Re-engagement has a twofold benefit; the first is to the employer in that they retain the skills and experience of an employee. The second is to the employee who can have access to their retirement benefits but re-engage in employment.
