With the busy schedule of ministers, the 4% increase in pensions planned for this month has been postponed, a priori to next month. There will be retroactivity, but Tuesday, August 9, day of payment of pensions, how much does this absence weigh?
Tuesday, August 9 afternoon, bad surprise for Anita Vanmansart when she checks her bank account. As at the beginning of each month, this former worker is in retirement, but today she was hoping for more. She should have received 47 euros more. His pension should have increased by 4%, as provided for in the law on purchasing power, but the text was adopted later than expected. pension funds will do the payment that in a month, on September 9, with retroactive effect from July 1.
For Anita Vanmansartit’s one more month to make concessions. The revaluation is lower than inflation and this could also be the case for supplementary pensions on 1 November. They are negotiated by the social partners, but the calculation rule is less advantageous when inflation is high. Negotiations will begin in October.
