In the framework of the presentation of the reform of the pension system, Elisabeth Borne made an effort to demonstrate “the social progress” that will be generated. Example with the announced revaluation of the minimum pension.
“A life of work must guarantee a dignified retirement”, affirms the President of the Government. This will increase the minimum pension for all retirees, future and current, who will have a full career (43 years in the long term).
Almost 1200 euros per month of pension
This amount of 1,200 euros is a gross amount, on which, therefore, the classic social security contributions can be applied. The Prime Minister also indicated that she had “decided to integrate”, “the revaluation of the pensions of current retirees who have made a full career at the level of the Smic”, or “almost two million small pensions”.
This revaluation should take place “this year”. The cost of this measure is estimated by the Prime Minister at one billion euros. Noting that this measure will be discussed with parliamentarians, “particularly” the LR group, Elisabeth Borne said that her “goal” is for it to appear in the bill that will be presented to the Council of Ministers on January 23.
