There is the risk of a new load of exodus in 2027 if the age requirements and contributions will increase to retire on the basis of adaptation to life expectancy. The alarm comes from the CGIL which calculated as 44 thousand people may be involved in isopens, expansion and solidarity agreements. These could find themselves, in the face of the hypothesized increase of three months for access to the pension, without income and without contribution waiting for the pension. In fact, they may have to wait instead of the 67 years 67 years and three months and instead of 42 years and a month for the early retirement (over three months of the mobile window) 43 years and one month, in addition to the window, however having the insidious subsidy only up to the limit valid at the time of the agreements.
“Over 44,000 workers, who have adhered to early exit measures in recent years, as a result of the automatic adaptation of the pension requirements for life expectancy – underlines the head of the social security policies of the CGIL, Ezio Cigna – risk finding themselves from 1 January 2027 without income and without contribution. They are new exodus. If the government does not intervene, 19,200 isopensing workers and 4,000 with expansion contract will find themselves with a three -month void without a check, without contributions, without protections. We are talking about people who have left work in full compliance with the rules, signing agreements with companies and funds, based on dates of certain access to retirement. To these are added another 21,000 workers who came out with bilateral solidarity funds, for which, albeit with different impacts, a possible void of social security coverage is configured ».
Istat will publish in the coming months the data on life expectancy at 65 years of age, a basis for deciding the adaptation of the retirement age in 2027 and the government should make the decree within the year on the possible increase in age for old age and contributions necessary for early retirement. After the drop in life expectancy at the age of 65 recorded with Pandemia from Covid (four months that should be recovered in the next update), according to Istat, an “important growth” of this parameter which could determine the shot of the increase in age for retirement in 2027 was recorded. For a three -month increase in the retirement age, the increased increase must be at least seven months. But the government could intervene for a freezing. “The effects of adaptation to life expectancy – says the confederal secretary of the CGIL Lara Ghiglione – they already weigh on the new generations, forced to postpone the retirement age more and more and to deal with increasingly lower checks, due to the progressive reduction of the transformation coefficients. A mechanism that risks undermining the trust of young people in the public system and accentuating already deep inequalities ». “The government had promised the overcoming of the Fornero law, insists the CGIL secretary, but in fact it only managed to worsen it by giving all form of outgoing flexibility and cutting the revaluation: it serves a real reform, which guarantees adequate and dignified pensions, especially for women and young people who often have discontinuous careers or precarious jobs”.
