Benefits for pre-retirees: 6 facts that few people know about

Can an employee of pre-retirement age be fired?

According to Art. 144.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, it is impossible to dismiss an employee because he has reached pre-retirement age. However, a pre-retirement employee may be pressured and persuaded to write a letter of resignation of his own free will. In this case, the citizen will be able to go to court, present evidence that the application was written “under pressure”, and the real reason for the dismissal was his age. In this case, the employer will face a fine or mandatory work in accordance with the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

However, the law does not in any way limit the dismissal of a pre-retirement employee in the following cases:

  1. Due to the expiration of a fixed-term employment contract;
  2. By agreement of the parties;
  3. Due to the liquidation of the organization or change of owner;
  4. Due to inconsistency with the position;
  5. Due to failure to fulfill job duties, theft of property, absenteeism, and so on.

Naturally, the reasons for dismissal of a pre-retirement employee must also be documented. For example, the employee’s absenteeism, the results of the certification he failed must be documented, explanatory notes from the employee must be presented, orders on disciplinary sanctions must be drawn up, etc. Only in this case, questions about the validity of the dismissal will not arise, for example, if the employee contacts the labor inspectorate.

Please note that the pre-retirement age is set 5 years before the retirement of each individual person, which depends on his date of birth. Many websites, including the Pension Fund website, have tables with incorrect data and tables

For example, it is indicated that women in 1968

The answer from the PFR online consultant on this issue is below. We reported an error in the tables on the official website of the Pension Fund of Russia, it will be corrected in the near future.

Response from the Pension Fund of Russia online consultant on the issue of establishing “pre-retirement” status.

Let's start with the fact that the need for such a reform has been brewing for a long time, however, the initiative of the head of the Government Dmitry Medvedev to increase the retirement age initially assumed a categorical increase in the age limit. In particular, it was decided that men would be able to work until 65 years of age, and women until 63. However, subsequently the President, by personal order, made a number of mitigating adjustments.

These adjustments resulted in the lowering of the age limit for women to 60 years, while for men everything remained unchanged. However, the reform itself will be implemented gradually, and a grace period of 10 years is provided for a smooth transition to the new system.

Attention! The principle of consistently increasing the age of pensioners will continue until 2028

Benefits for people of pre-retirement age

In order to mitigate the negative consequences of the pension reform, various benefits for pre-retirees, as well as measures of additional support and protection, were proposed. They were developed by State Duma deputies from the United Russia faction and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The list of benefits may be supplemented in the future, since a working group continues to operate in the State Duma, which is engaged in the analysis and processing of information and proposals received from citizens, public organizations, ministries and departments.

To support citizens of pre-retirement age, the following decisions have already been made:

  • On October 14, 2021, a law on criminal liability of an employer for dismissal or refusal to hire citizens of pre-retirement age came into force. In addition, various options are being considered to encourage employers to hire pre-retirees and retain them in their jobs.
  • To undergo a medical examination, pre-retirees will be able to take 2 working days annually while maintaining their wages. The law providing for such a change also comes into force on January 1, 2019.
  • From 2021, various tax benefits will be provided upon reaching the retirement age established by the old legislation: according to generally established standards - for persons who have reached 55/60 years of age, and if a citizen has the right to become a pensioner early, then upon reaching the age of acquisition of such a right according to the norms of the old legislation. In fact, such tax benefits will also be provided for pre-retirees

Upon reaching retirement age under the old law (55 and 60 years), Russians will have the right to receive such types of tax benefits as exemption from property tax (house, apartment, garage, etc.), partial exemption from land tax ( deduction for 6 acres of land).

In the regions, upon reaching the specified age, various additional local benefits will be provided (for travel, payment of utilities, etc.), the right to which previously extended only to those with pensioner status.

  • A special program has been developed for the retraining of pre-retirees and advanced training, which will allow a citizen to be in demand in the labor market before reaching the new retirement age (which, we recall, in the coming years will increase, respectively, to 60 years for women and 65 years for men)
  • Starting from 2021, a funded pension can be received upon reaching the ages of 55 and 60, and not after retirement, as provided for in the old legislation.

Innovations for people of pre-retirement age

What age is considered pre-retirement?

Legislators have changed the concept of “pre-retirement age”. In 2018 and earlier, it was believed that it begins 2 years before the retirement age, including when a pension is assigned early. In 2021 and beyond, the pre-retirement age will begin 5 years before reaching retirement age, including in case of early retirement (new edition of clause 2 of article 5 of the Law on Employment). Let us remind you that from next year the retirement age for women will generally be 60 years, and for men - 65 years.

Thus, as a general rule, women who will turn 55 years old and men who will turn 60 years old will be considered persons of pre-retirement age.

Information about pre-retirement age

There are other innovations as well. Thus, from 2021, the Pension Fund will provide free information on classifying a person as a citizen of pre-retirement age. You will need to apply for this information to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation at your place of residence or work. The Fund is obliged to send information in the form specified by the citizen: by mail, electronically, for example, through a portal of state and municipal services or through the personal account of the insured person, or in another way (clause 12 of Article 10 of Law No. 350-FZ) .

Unemployment benefits for people of pre-retirement age

Starting from 2021, citizens of pre-retirement age will be assigned unemployment benefits according to special rules. For those who were dismissed for any reason (with some exceptions, which will be discussed below) during the 12 months preceding the start of unemployment, the benefit payment period should not exceed 12 months for a total of 18 months.

Important! If a person’s insurance experience is at least 20 years (for women) or 25 years (for men), then the benefit payment period will be increased by two weeks for each year of work exceeding the specified length of service. In this case, the final period for calculating unemployment benefits cannot be more than 24 months in total for 36 months. The amount of benefits for people of pre-retirement age depends on how long the person worked during the 12 months preceding the start of unemployment

Those who worked for at least 26 weeks during this period will be able to receive the following benefit amounts: in the first 3 months in the amount of 75% of the average monthly earnings accrued over the last 3 months at the last place of work, in the next 4 months - in the amount of 60% of the specified earnings , then - in the amount of 45% of the specified earnings. In this case, the amount of the benefit cannot be higher than the maximum amount and lower than the minimum amount, increased by the regional coefficient. Those persons of pre-retirement age who worked less than 26 weeks before the onset of unemployment will be able to receive benefits in the amount of the minimum amount

The amount of benefit for people approaching retirement age depends on how long the person worked during the 12 months preceding the start of unemployment. Those who worked for at least 26 weeks during this period will be able to receive the following benefit amounts: in the first 3 months in the amount of 75% of the average monthly earnings accrued over the last 3 months at the last place of work, in the next 4 months - in the amount of 60% of the specified earnings , then - in the amount of 45% of the specified earnings. In this case, the amount of the benefit cannot be higher than the maximum amount and lower than the minimum amount, increased by the regional coefficient. Those persons of pre-retirement age who worked less than 26 weeks before the onset of unemployment will be able to receive benefits in the amount of the minimum amount.

The maximum and minimum amounts of unemployment benefits for persons of pre-retirement age will be approved annually by the Government of the Russian Federation. According to Resolution No. 1375, the maximum benefit for 2021 for this category of unemployed will be 11,280 rubles. per month, and the minimum amount is 1,500 rubles. per month. These rules will not apply to persons of pre-retirement age in the following cases: a citizen seeks to get a job after more than a year's break; the citizen was fired for violating labor discipline or other guilty actions; a citizen sent by the employment service for training was expelled for guilty actions. For these categories of people of pre-retirement age, unemployment benefits will be paid according to the general rules that we described above (new Article 34.2 of the Law on Employment).

When you need status confirmation

First of all, this is beneficial to the citizen, because after this he will be able to count on legal preferences from the state and local authorities.

In practice, confirmation is needed when:

1) Obtaining a discounted travel pass. It is provided by a transport company that issues regular, student, children's and other passes for public transport (buses, trolleybuses, etc.).

2) To the employer - to take legal 2 days off for medical examination, to be protected from unfair dismissal, etc.

3) Apply for utility, tax and other benefits . If they were not provided automatically after the person reached the specified age.

4) Receiving an inheritance - when the citizen was not indicated in the text of the deceased’s will.

The reasons that require documentary confirmation of status are different; sometimes employees of the Pension Fund or MFC, where a person receives a certificate, can clarify why it is needed.

More than a million pre-retirement pensioners have confirmed their status for 2019, and all of them are entitled to benefits. Like people who have 5 years or less left until retirement.

First of all, this is a special protection at the legislative level from dismissal, which is dictated by only one factor - age. This directly violates Article 3 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

increased unemployment benefits should be available

Some pre-retirees are also entitled to early retirement.

Social benefits and payments for pre-retirees

The main type of benefits that pre-retirees are most interested in are social benefits. Their provision is regulated by the laws of local authorities. Therefore, depending on the place of residence of the pre-retirement person, the list of payments and benefits will differ.

In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to the conditions for the provision of pre-retirement benefits and payments. Local laws may specify the age for receiving such support as 55 and 60 years, or within 5 years before retirement

It can be:

  • free telephony;

At what age does a citizen receive pre-retirement status?

A citizen of pre-retirement age is a person who will have the right to receive an old-age insurance pension within the next 5 years. Previously (until January 1, 2021), a pre-retirement citizen was considered a citizen who would leave his job and retire in 2 years. But in connection with the pension reform, the situation has changed - today, pre-retirement status can be obtained by a man aged 60 years and a woman aged 55 years (those who have 5 years left before retirement). During these five years (until retirement at 65 and 60 years old, respectively), the status is assigned to its owner.

Such changes are connected with the fact that the consequence of the pension reform was a gradual increase in the retirement age. This is stated in the text of Article 8 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 400-FZ. Every year, starting from 2020, 1 year will be added to the age at which you can start receiving a pension. This will continue until retirement age reaches:

  • at 60 years old - for women;
  • at 65 years old - for men.

You can determine in what year a citizen will have the opportunity to quit his job and live off the state pension provision using the following table (information taken from Appendix 1 to Federal Law No. 166-FZ of December 15, 2001):

What age is considered pre-retirement (table by year of birth)

As noted earlier, the age at which a citizen will be considered pre-retirement will change annually during the transition period (from 2021 to 2023). Therefore, for Russians of different years of birth, the pre-retirement age will be different, which means they will begin to enjoy the benefits provided at different times.

  • Women born 1964-1966 and men born 1959-1961. It will be possible to take advantage of the benefits provided for pre-retirees from January 1, 2021 , since they have less than 5 years left before retirement.
