Invitation to Join the RCPSA

The Retired Civil and Public Servants Association was founded in 1945.  Membership is open to all retired Civil Servants and Public Servants, including P & T members from An Post, eircom/eir, Irish Aviation Authority, Coillte, Teagasc and professional groups approved in accordance with the Rules.  This includes widowed persons in receipt of a public service pension.

What we do

Our mission is to defend and promote the interests of members.  To do this effectively, we want to include as many retired colleagues in our membership as possible.

How we do this

We engage directly with Government representatives and Government Departments, making approaches and submissions on relevant issues, including annual pre-Budget submissions.  We are affiliated to the Alliance of Retired Public Servants and have representation on  the ICTU Retired Workers Committee.  We engage with the Alliance, and with other organisations representing retired public servants, to fight for pension restoration, protection of pensions entitlements and improved services for members.

Organisation

We are governed by the Rules of the RCPSA that have been adopted by members and subject to change by the democratic agreement of the membership.  We inform members on issues of interest through publication of regular Newsletters, use of our website, www.rcpsa.ie and attendance by Council members at Branch AGM’s.

Invitation:

We would like to invite retired colleagues to join the Association.  A strong membership is needed to ensure an authoritative voice.

The annual membership subscription is €20.  Payroll Shared Services  (PSS), An Post and eir will deduct the subscription directly from pension payments, in instalments, throughout the year .

New members from Coillte, Teagasc or any other body which does not provide deduction from pension, or members who do not wish to opt for deduction at source, can make arrangements to pay the Hon. Treasurer directly by indicating that choice on the attached membership form.

If you wish to become a member, please download and complete the application form (see link below) and return it to the address shown below.  Payment methods are outlined on the form.
