No that’s not what it says. It says you have to be at retirement age to get the pension.
EG. If I work for the govt from age 20 to 40, then leave from 40-60 to work in private industry, I have to wait until age 57 or 62 (see complicated chart) until I get the govt pension that I accrued from age 20 to 40.
But for those who are at retirement age, the only way to get it again is to be hired again, which wont happen for atleast 4 years
