Lower retirement age at the earliest in 2018. – GazetaPrawna.pl

There is no indication that the presidential draft law on reduced age quickly enters into force. And by no means it is a matter only comments that reported to him ZUS. The adoption of the amendment to the Act of 17 December 1998. On pensions from the Social Insurance Fund (i.e., OJ 2015. Pos. 748 as amended.) Can postpone the time, also because of the Council for Social Dialogue (RDS). As is clear from the work schedule for her team problem. Social Security, which reached the DGP, its members plan to complete discussions on lowering the retirement age proposed by the president only in August. At the same time, and this date is not certain.

– Already the unions are demanding an extension of the circle of persons entitled to benefit from the project Presidential – indicates Jeremi Mordasewicz expert retirement Confederation Lewiatan, member of the Supervisory Board of ZUS .

first to be discussed proposals for the “Solidarity” and OPZZ concerning, among others the right to early retirement, regardless of age, depending on your insurance record.

– The only thing on which he can agree during the discussions on the draft Presidential RDS, is to enable the transition early retirement to persons 42 years of contribution, provided that their professional activity began right after school. You will not agree to the proposal of trade unionists that women are able to retire regardless of age after 35 years of work, and men after 40 – adds Jeremi Mordasewicz.

Surprisingly bans

While the Sejm nothing happens with the presidential project that looked at him ZUS, which according to some provisions of the prepared laws are so vague that they should be rewritten. This should include about art. 17. The President determines it, that the provisions prepared by his bill “does not affect the rights and obligations of persons who acquired the right to benefits specified in the regulations changed this law in the period from 1 January 2013. 31 December 2015., Under the provisions of force at the date of entitlement to these benefits. ” With this record ZUS drew that it is probably a ban on applying for a pension at retirement age reduced by persons who prior to the entry into force of the new rules will no longer be entitled to benefits in the raised age. However, there was no doubt, it must be – according to the authority – to write directly.

Additionally ZUS indicates that the project does not specify which tables of life expectancy are to apply to persons who They acquired the right to provide a higher age, but did not apply for the benefit. This is important because the person later retires, including its benefit is higher because fewer years left to the end of the collection.

Organ there is no illusion that changes in the way calculating pensions will cause problems not only with the granting of new benefits, but also to conversion of already downloaded. They may occur in the case of minimum benefits, compensation, retirement and bridging pensions.

ZUS has prepared its proposals for change. Andrzej Radzisława, legal counsel with the law firm lexconsulting.pl, emphasizes that the comments made by the authority shows that he wants to individuals who prior to the entry into force of the new legislation receive any retirement benefit, retirement pension, teachers provide compensation – and before entry into force of the new rules are under 60 or 65 years – retained the right to those benefits until the pension rights under the previous rules.

– this does not mean, however, that the new regulations did not cover this group of people, but keep in mind that the pension is a benefit paid at the request of the person and the granting of authority occurs in rare cases – explains Andrzej Radzisława.

– ZUS should so inform the individual new conditions for entitlement to a pension. At the same time it is important that this information was communicated in an accessible way – he added.

Problems with counting

The problem could also be slider retirement. Currently open pension funds have 10 years on the systematic communication of its members to the sub conducted by the Social Insurance Institution. Now they will have to be immediately sent to the accounts of people who acquire early retirement. The problem will also prepare the computer system for lowering the retirement age.

– ZUS needs at least nine months to prepare for changes in information systems, conducting tenders and test the system, to avoid problems the granting and payment of benefits – says Jeremi Mordasewicz.

the plant will have to be reworked logarithms used to determine eligibility and amount of benefits. This will apply not only to new benefits granted upon request or ex officio, but also those already paid. Problems can also be periodic pension capital, suspending the payment of benefits to which the law ceases with the statutory retirement age.

ZUS may also have problems with raising the height of payments for women, which on the basis of current legislation lacked seniority to the minimum pension, and after the change will be able to have such a benefit (reduction from 22 to 20 years of contributory and non-contributory).

is also not known whether the plant will cope with partial retirement and hanging up pension payments to people who receive any early retirement.
