I'm kind of happy with he idea of making it easier for the dead-weight pension prisoners to bail early, and leave room for the keen.

I'm not suggesting every person nearing retirement is dead weight, but the reality I have seen is that many in the last few years are just treading water to pad their pension/reduce the penalty.

Not my experience but there definitely are some like that. They won’t be taking this though (see below).

Making it easier for them to leave, while not crushing new hires is a better long term strategy than just slashing jobs, which inevitably are the lowest paid and highest productivity.

The problem is a that a lot of the ones that are slackers won’t take this. They are waiting for more WFA in the hopes of getting a better payout via TSMs.

I just hope it’s the dead-weight that takes the deal, and not the keen who can use this to supplement another, higher income somewhere else.

The dead weight types are waiting for TSMs and alternation. That 68k? I bet less than a third opt it.

Its way to hard to shed dead weight. In the CAF and PS it seems.

A lot of managers would love to be able to cut using dead weight parameters if they could.

Slackers will use their time to figure out their next move while the performers will be focused on trying to do their jobs and keep the lights on…and they will likely be the ones cut.
