For retirees, is pension an important source of income to maintain basic life?

In order to ensure the life of the elderly after retirement, China is gradually increasing the care and welfare for the retired elderly. For retired workers, endowment insurance is the main source of income for the elderly. In order to ensure the living standard of the elderly and reduce the pressure on their children to support them, China's retirement policy is gradually being adjusted and improved. There are three new adjustments to pensions this year, and retired workers must pay attention to them.

The first thing that retired workers should pay attention to is that the pension payment time has been changed and adjusted to the 20th of each month. At present, Hebei province has made this adjustment, and all provinces and cities in the country will gradually change. Some people will think that this adjustment of the release time is meaningful. Send it early and send it late.

This adjustment is made on the basis of fully considering the gradual increase of the number of elderly people in China and the increasingly severe obligation of the state to provide services for the elderly. At present, China's population is gradually aging, and the increase in the total number of elderly people has greatly increased the pressure on the issuance of pensions. Previously retired workers can change the date of receiving pension privately, which is not conducive to the long-term payment of pension. Therefore, China has decided to issue pension insurance benefits in a unified way to ensure that pension insurance benefits can be issued for a long time. Therefore, this adjustment has far-reaching significance.

Retired people can get extra subsidies. In addition to the basic pension, some retirees will receive additional subsidies such as high temperature allowance or old age allowance. This also reflects that the new national policy is more personalized and gives more care to retired people. Taking full account of the hot weather in summer, the elderly will have a relatively large extra expenditure on cold food. Therefore, the government departments decided to give a certain high temperature allowance to express their feelings and comfort. Take Hangzhou as an example. If the weather is hot in summer, from June to September every year, 130 high temperature allowance will be paid to retired employees every month.

In addition, there are pension subsidies, but the specific credit line of subsidies varies according to the current policies of various provinces. In some areas, people over the age of 60 can get it, and in some areas, people over the age of 65 can get it. However, the older the general age, the greater the credit line of the old age allowance, but the specific amount of the allowance should be formulated in light of the local economic situation, and retired employees can consult with relevant departments.

Recalculate pensions. At present, China's pension has been continuously increased 17. Because of the soaring prices, China is about to have a pension increase of 18. In addition, in China, the old-age insurance will be recalculated and adjusted in the second half of this year. Generally, the old-age salary is calculated in the first half of each year. However, in order to ensure the normal distribution of the endowment insurance credit line for each retired employee, it can be recalculated again in the second half of this year. This also shows that in our country, we are really considering and safeguarding the specific interests of every retired worker. So it's good news for those who didn't catch up with the retirement pension adjustment in the first half of this year, because the pension will rise soon in the second half of this year.
