More than 161 thousand Nghe An residents receive monthly pensions and social insurance benefits at new levels.
(Baonghean.vn) - In the last weeks of June 2019, Nghe An Provincial Social Insurance mobilized civil servants and employees to focus on implementing tasks to promptly adjust pensions and monthly social insurance benefits for people in the area according to Decree No. 44/2019/ND-CP dated May 20, 2019 and Decree No. 38/2019/ND-CP dated May 9, 2019 of the Government.
Accordingly, from July 1, 2019, the group of people receiving monthly pensions and social insurance benefits will be increased by 7.19% on the pension and social insurance benefits of June 2019; the group of people receiving monthly death benefits and service benefits (the group with benefits calculated based on the basic salary) will be calculated based on the basic salary of 1,490,000 VND from July 1, 2019.
As one of the localities with the largest number of pensioners and social insurance beneficiaries nationwide, and a diverse group of beneficiaries, completing payment data in a short time is a big challenge for Nghe An Social Insurance. Determining that, immediately after receiving the Decrees and guiding documents, based on the direction of Vietnam Social Insurance, Nghe An Provincial Social Insurance has developed a plan, assigned specific responsibilities to each individual and related unit, ensuring the completion of payment data, making correct, sufficient and accurate adjustments for beneficiaries.
