Adjustment Increase Approved! A long-awaited piece of good news has finally arrived for millions of retirees. The adjustment increase of 355 TRY, which has delighted many retired citizens, has been approved. Pensioners who have been eagerly awaiting this adjustment increase for a long time can now focus on when the payment will be made.
According to available information, when will the approved 355 TRY adjustment increase be paid to SSK and Bağ-Kur pensioners? This question is now the subject of eager anticipation among all retirees waiting for the adjustment increase. With a new regulation expected to be submitted to the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, retired citizens will be unified under a single framework.
Accordingly, the Social Insurance and General Health Insurance Law, which came into effect in 2008, will be used to harmonize practice across systems. The initial adjustment increase under the adjustment law has been set at 55 TRY. The maximum amount for the adjustment increase has been announced as 355 TRY.
In 2020, the Ministry of Family and Labor indicated that work on the adjustment increase had been carried out and that it passed the commission. Reports on television channels brought attention to the ministry’s work, turning the plan into a concrete proposal. As of now, the exact amounts of pensions after the adjustment have not been announced.
When Will the Adjustment Increase Be Paid?
When will the adjustment increase be paid? Millions of retirees have been closely watching developments and waiting for news about the payment. The Ministry of Family, Labor and Social Services has reportedly approved the adjustment increase. After the approval, the initial increase amount was announced as 55 TRY, while the maximum adjustment increase was reported as 355 TRY. However, there is still no clear announcement regarding the payment date for the adjustment differences.
The request for adjustment from civil servant retirees has also been submitted to the government by Memur-Sen. The proposal seeks to eliminate pension disparities that arose between retirees who held the same job titles and duties but came from different institutions. The aim is to provide supplemental payments to make up the difference for those with lower pension rates. If this request is implemented, it will close the pension gap caused by institutional differences among retirees who served in the same positions.
