Moved Permanently

Who follow in active-duty after that age only they will pay a 1.70% to the Social Security by temporary incapacity. The modification will elevate the net repayment of these people.

The people who continue working after the 65 years, with 35 exercises of quote, like minimum, and with an antiquity in the company of five or more years will have an additional ascent of the net wage. The reason of this increase of the repayment must to that they will stop contributing 4.70% that the workers pay to the denominated contingencies common in the bases of quote to the Social Security and they will only have to pay 1.70% by temporary incapacity.

In any case, the ascent could not more be superior to the average variation of the real inflation two percentage points, because that will be the maximum exemption of quote by common contingencies. This it is the sense of one of the most important amendments that the PSOE and the Popular Party agreed yesterday in the Congress of the Deputies with respect to the Law of the Reformation of the Social Security.

In fact, with the limitation of the maximum exemption of quote by common contingencies to the real evolution of the IPC more two percentage points and the obligatory payment of 1.70% by temporary incapacity, the Government modifies an amendment of the Popular, dangerous Party from the point of view of the social protection. It is necessary that all worker quotes by temporary incapacity reason why can happen.

In any case, as much the rapporteur of the PSOE in the law, Maria Jose Sanchez, like the spokesman of the PP, Jose Ignacio Echániz, agreed in emphasizing the measurement like “an incentive more for the prolongation of the labor life of the workers”. It is truth well that in this case talks about the improvement of the net wage. From the point of view of the improvement of the pension, the same project of Law of Measures in the matter of Social Security already picks up other directed proposals to foment the permanence in the market of work of the employees of greater age. For example, the person who with 35 years of quote to the Social Security continues working after the 65 will have right to an additional increase of 2% in the pension by each exercise in which she prolongs his activity.

A long race

This additional increase will rise to 3% when the beneficiary has turned 40 years of quote to the Social Security.

On the contrary, the Commission of Work and Social Subjects of the Congress postponed the concession to the civil servants of the Central Administration of the State of the possibility of prolonging the labor life in same the terms that in the private sector. From the moment which in force the law enters, the Government is a year old to present/display in the Parliament a law project in which the regulation takes shelter of the prolongation of the labor life of the employees public.

The PP tried to present/display an amendment in this sense, but the Government asked to him he retired that given it to the particularitity of the civil servants and the disparity of the different uses and professions. The recent Basic Statute of the Public Employee, who already is in force, picks up this possibility, but, as in the case of the anticipated and partial retirement, the Congress of the Deputies decided to give long the question.
