Pension Reform :
** “You can now retire at any age between 60 and 70”
** Since January 1, 2003, several important changes were made to our pension system to ensure that future generations receive an adequate pension. See the changes below.
Increase in pensionable age :
** As a result of Pension Reform, the penionable age will increase by 6 months every four years from January 1, 2006 until it reaches 67 on January 1, 2018.
Flexible retirement :
** Other changes which came about from Pension Reform include the introduction of flexible retirement/pensionable ages. This means that eventually you will be able to retire at any age between 60 and 70. You can receive early pension from age 60.
Non-contributory Old Age Pension :
