If an employee has a medical condition that prevents them from performing the inherent requirements of their substantive position, either permanently or for the foreseeable future, the Department may choose to ill health retire the employee.
Prior to considering the ill health retirement of an employee, the Department first needs to ensure that it has exhausted the options of rehabilitation, reasonable adjustment and medical deployment.
All decisions to ill health retire an employee are made under section 85 of the Public Service Act 2008 
.
For details of the process that the Department follows when ill health retiring an employee, please see the Ill Health Retirement Flowchart 
61k. This flowchart includes templates for memos and letters that may be used in this process.
