Nam, as an investigator, liquidated the Chernobyl accident and attended a special operation in Baku. But after 19 years of service he was forced to resign. The year before last, he began to apply for a pension and it turned out that his 19 years were not included in the insurance period, which means he can only count on a social pension of 90 rubles. And even at 65 years old.
The Ministry of Labor then just shrugged: such legislation, nothing can be done. Like, a long time ago there was a concept of insurance experience - this is the period of work when you, or instead of you, paid insurance premiums. And it depends on its value whether a person will receive a labor or social pension. Yes, in fact, the concept of insurance experience has existed since 2006. But literally over the past few years he has grown from 5 to 15 years. And according to the law, it will grow even more: every year by 6 months, ultimately by 2025 it will be 20 years.
At the same time, the insurance period does not include military service, study at universities and colleges, as well as graduate school, doctoral studies, etc., maternity leave, service in the police and other law enforcement agencies, and much more.
After Belarusians began to retire under the new legislation, there were also those who fell into the so-called “insurance period trap” - people whose total length of service allowed them to retire and qualify for it, but they did not have any insurance experience enough.
- You have lived your whole life with the feeling that you need 5 years of insurance experience, and suddenly you need 16. And it is often unrealistic to work out this difference,- say human rights activists of the public association “Belarusian Helsinki Committee”.
This is what happened to Ivan Nikolaevich, who, after 19 years of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, quit to care for his sick parents. He had about 10 years of insurance experience without service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. This was not enough to receive even the minimum old-age pension. This means that he could only qualify for a social pension of 90 denominated rubles, and even then after five years.
According to the Ministry of Labor, more than 1,000 people found themselves in a similar situation at the time the period was extended, and their number is growing every year.
Human rights activists have taken up the problem of the insurance experience trap. They appealed to the Constitutional Court, the Ministry of Labor and Parliament.
- We proposed introducing a transition period, “first targeted assistance” for those who find themselves in a similar trap. Moreover, to assign a proportional pension, even if the insurance period has not been fully exhausted,- note human rights activists of the Belarusian Helsinki Committee.
The Constitutional Court noted that when transitioning to new legislation, “the legitimate expectations of citizens should be met as much as possible, including by determining a reasonable transition period to provide citizens with a real opportunity to comply with the amended requirements of legislative norms.” The Constitutional Court also added that it is necessary to provide for the adjustment and inclusion of socially significant activities for the state and society in the length of service.
As a result, the legislation was revised. And as of yesterday, a new presidential decree of June 29, 2017 No. 233 “On pension provision for certain categories of citizens” came into force.
- Yes, Ivan Nikolaevich will be one of the few who will be able to receive a labor pension rather than a social pension. We have already sent documents for registration,- says the head of the labor department of the Lida regional executive committee Andrei Mimish. - The insurance period for him and all military personnel who did not go on a military pension has been reduced to 10 years. And Ivan Nikolaevich has already worked it out.
- Innovations soften the situation of some vulnerable groups in the future, but at the same time do not completely solve the problem of the insurance experience trap,- explain in the BHC. Human rights activists have compiled a special table to show what changes have occurred in the legislation and what has remained the same.
| New pension rules before decree No. 233 (until 08/01/2017) | After decree No. 233 (after 01.08.2017) |
| Some people fell into the insurance experience trap due to the fact that no exceptions or transition periods were provided for those who, during the period of innovations, reach retirement age, have a sufficient amount of insurance experience according to the old rules (at least 5 years), but do not reach up to the insurance period established by the new decrees. This is primarily about those people who, in the dashing 90s and after, survived as best they could, without official employment. These people cannot receive either an old-age pension on a general basis or a social pension. | The situation of these people was not improved in any way. The only way out of the situation would be to introduce a transition period for people who will soon reach retirement age. |
| People who have been carrying out socially useful activities for years (for example, caring for disabled people of the 1st group) fell into the trap of the insurance period and lost their right to a pension. The fact is that the state makes an entry in their work book and pays them money, but does not count their work into the insurance period. People do not have time to accumulate the required period of insurance coverage (16 years in 2017, more later). At the same time, according to the law, caring for a disabled person of the 1st group cannot be combined with any work. | The logic of socially useful activities is taken into account in some way. Periods of socially useful activity are still not included in the insurance period, but the period of insurance service for such people has been reduced to 10 years. True, at the same time, the length of total work experience for such people has increased. For women - at least 35 years old, for men - at least 40 years old. While for other categories (who have enough insurance experience of 16 years in 2017), the total work experience is 20 and 25 years for men and women, respectively. Thus, the decree made pension provision more fair and lenient for this category of citizens, but the problem has not been completely solved, since an increase in the total length of service for many may be an obstacle to the assignment of a pension. |
| The situation of people who cared for a disabled person of the 1st group or a person who had reached the age of 80 was complicated not only by the trap of the insurance period, but also by the fact that after reaching retirement age they could not receive care benefits, even if they were not assigned pension due to lack of insurance experience. | The decree eliminated this conflict. Now these people can continue to receive care benefits until the appointment of a social pension, and this period is counted towards their total length of service. |
| Inequality has arisen in relation to military personnel, employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, law enforcement agencies and persons equivalent to them. While these people serve, the state as an employer does not pay insurance premiums for them. If they retire before reaching their term of service (which is 20 years), they will be accrued a pension on a general basis. This means that, for example, a principled police officer, being dismissed after 19 years of good service, will have to find a job and have time to develop an insurance record of at least 16 years today. | The situation of military personnel, employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, law enforcement agencies and persons equivalent to them is improving. Their service period is still not counted towards the insurance period. If for any reason these people do not reach the departmental pension and are dismissed earlier, in order to receive a pension on a general basis they will need to gain 10 years of insurance experience, and not 16 or more, as was the case before the adoption of Decree 233. They also need to gain minimum total work experience: 20 years for women, 25 years for men. The time of service is counted towards the total length of service. However, this relaxed approach will only apply to those people who have served for at least 10 years. |
Alexander Khristoforov, Chairman of the Committee on Labor, Employment and Social Protection of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee:
− Pension provision for citizens is carried out in accordance with the Law “On Pension Security” dated April 17, 1992 No. 1596-XII (as amended and supplemented) and other regulations in force on the date of application for a pension.
According to Articles 5 and 11 of the Law, in 2017, an old-age labor pension on a general basis is assigned to men aged 60 years 6 months with at least 25 years of work experience, of which at least 16 years of work experience with the payment of mandatory insurance contributions to the budget of the state non-budgetary social protection fund.
The calculation of length of service is carried out in accordance with Article 51 of the law. The concepts of length of service for calculating the amount of pension and length of insurance differ in content.
Periods of work, entrepreneurial, creative and other activities are included in the length of service for calculating the amount of pension, provided that during these periods compulsory insurance contributions were paid to the budget of the state extra-budgetary fund for social protection of the population (part one of Article 51 of the law), as well as other periods activities without paying mandatory insurance contributions specified in paragraphs “a” - “n” of Article 51 of the Law (part two of this article).
In particular, periods of military service in the Armed Forces, border troops and border service agencies, internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, state security agencies, the Presidential Security Service and other military formations created in accordance with the legislation of the service are counted as length of service for calculating pensions. in the internal affairs bodies, the Investigative Committee, the State Forensic Examinations Committee, bodies and units for emergency situations and financial investigation bodies of the State Control Committee, as well as service in the Armed Forces, state security bodies and internal affairs bodies of the former USSR.
The insurance period includes only periods of work (other activities) provided for in Part 1 of Article 51 of the Law, including periods of work on the territory of the USSR. The periods provided for in part two of Article 51 of the Law (paragraphs “a”, “c” - “n”) are not counted towards the insurance period.
Please note that the presence of an insurance period of a certain duration is a prerequisite for the assignment of one or another type of labor pension. Thus, to assign an old-age pension in 2017, 16 years of covered work experience are required (annually from January 1, it increases by 6 months until reaching 20 years).
To assign labor pensions for disability and loss of a breadwinner, the fact of payment of insurance premiums is sufficient. Presidential Decree No. 233 of June 29, 2017 “On pension provision for certain categories of citizens” provides for certain benefits based on the length of the insurance period for the assignment of age pensions to certain categories of citizens.
Thus, an old-age labor pension is assigned to citizens who have served in the military and have at least 25 years of work experience for men and 20 years for women, including at least 10 calendar years of military service with at least 10 years of covered work experience.
The circle of people entitled to an old-age pension for work with special working conditions is determined by Articles 12 and 15 of the law. In particular, paragraph "b" of Article 12 grants the right to an old-age pension for work with special working conditions to men with a reduction in the generally established retirement age by 5 years and with work experience of at least 25 years, of which at least 12 years 6 months (in this case at least 6 years 3 months in the period before January 1, 2009) in the jobs provided for in List No. 2. If the man has at least half of the work experience in hazardous and difficult working conditions (at least 6 years 3 months) before January 1, 2009 and at least 25 years of work experience, pensions are assigned with a reduction in the generally established retirement age by 1 year - for every 2 years 6 months of such work.
When calculating the special length of service that gives the right to an old-age pension for work with special working conditions, for periods of work before January 1, 1992, the lists of industries, workshops, professions, positions and indicators that give the right to such a pension, Lists No. 1 and No. 2, are used. approved by Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR of August 22, 1956 No. 1173.
For periods of work from January 1 to December 31, 1992, when calculating special length of service, Lists No. 1 and No. 2, approved by Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the USSR of January 26, 1991 No. 10, are used.
Lists No. 1 and No. 2, approved by Resolution of the Council of Ministers of May 25, 2005 No. 536, are applied for periods of work after January 1, 1993.
The procedure for applying each of the Lists is regulated by law: Lists No. 1 and No. 2, approved in 1956, are compiled on a production principle and the calculation of special experience for periods of work before January 1, 1992 is made without taking into account the results of workplace certification for working conditions. To include periods of work in professions and positions provided for in Lists No. 1 and No. 2, approved in 1991 and 2005, into the special experience, a prerequisite is confirmation of special working conditions by the results of workplace certification.
The right to early retirement pension is granted to employees who have been employed directly and permanently, full-time, for a period of time specified by law, in jobs with harmful and difficult working conditions, which must be confirmed by documents of the period of work.
Service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the BSSR (USSR, Belarus) is not provided for by Lists No. 1 and No. 2. Pensions for this category of citizens are carried out, in particular, in accordance with the law of December 17, 1992 No. 2050-XII “On pensions for military personnel, commanders and privates composition of internal affairs bodies, the Investigative Committee, bodies and units for emergency situations and financial investigation bodies.”
Junior medical personnel are given the right to early retirement benefits according to List No. 2.
Thus, Section XXVI “Health Institutions,” approved in 1956, provides for junior medical personnel working in psychiatric and psychoneurological institutions (directly serving mental patients).
Junior medical personnel in psychiatric (psychoneurological) treatment and preventive institutions, directly serving patients, are also provided for in List No. 2, approved in 1991 (Section XXIV “Health and Social Security Institutions”).
List No. 2, approved in 2005, includes orderlies directly involved in serving patients in psychiatric (psychoneurological) treatment and preventive institutions.

Women are granted this right if they have a special work experience of at least 25 years, and men with a special work experience of at least 30 years.

If an employee works on the basis of an employment contract, employment agreement or contract with different types of employers, he develops seniority. By working on a collective farm on a membership basis, a worker also develops seniority.
In accordance with Section 5 “Pensions for long service” of the Law of the Republic of Belarus “On Pensions”, certain categories of aviation workers and flight test personnel, certain categories of medical and teaching workers, as well as certain categories of theater artists and others have the right to this type of pension. theatrical and entertainment institutions and groups. All of these categories of workers work on the basis of an employment contract, agreement or contract. Their work experience in the above positions is flight and flight test personnel, workers performing air traffic control and having a dispatcher’s certificate, engineering and technical staff, flight attendants, medical and pedagogical workers of secondary schools, OPTU, technical schools and colleges, as well as artists and others employees of theatrical and entertainment institutions and groups - called length of service. The total duration of work of the named employees in the positions listed above is their length of service.

Length of service is called and military service of citizens in the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus, service in the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the State Security Committee. The total total duration of such service is the length of service of military personnel, privates and commanding officers of internal affairs bodies and the State Security Committee.
The presence of such length of service among the named persons is one of the necessary conditions for the emergence of a subjective right to a pension for length of service in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Belarus “On pension provision for military personnel, commanding and rank-and-file personnel of internal affairs bodies.”
Military service itself, as well as service in the internal affairs bodies and the State Security Committee, is calculated in calendar order - day by day, month by month, year by year. However, taking into account the nature and complexity of military service, service in the internal affairs bodies and the State Security Committee (remote areas, Navy, including nuclear, Air Force, including jet aviation, service in active army units), the said Law provides for preferential calculation length of service. Thus, a month of service in remote areas is counted as one and a half, and a year - as one and a half. Service in jet aviation is counted as a month as two, a year as two. Service in the active army - a month in three, a year - in three. Thus, the length of service of military personnel, commanding and rank-and-file personnel of internal affairs bodies and the State Security Committee is the total duration (in years, months, days) of military and other service in the above-mentioned bodies plus individual periods of service counted on the appropriate preferential terms provided for legislation.
In accordance with Art. 18 of the Law of the Republic of Belarus “On pensions for military personnel, commanding and rank-and-file personnel of internal affairs bodies”, the procedure for calculating length of service for assigning pensions for length of service to officers, warrant officers, midshipmen and military personnel serving under a contract, commanding and rank-and-file personnel of internal affairs bodies determined by Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus dated July 5, 1993 No. 432 “On the procedure for calculating length of service, assigning and paying pensions and benefits to officers, warrant officers, midshipmen and military personnel serving under a contract, to persons of command and rank and file of internal affairs bodies , emergency department authorities, financial investigation authorities and their families” in compliance with the following:

b) periods of service under special circumstances (during combat operations and other extreme situations, during flight work, on submarines, in conditions of increased radiation, in the airborne troops, in remote areas and areas with unfavorable conditions, when performing special assignments, etc.) are counted towards length of service for the purpose of granting pensions on appropriate preferential terms. In this case, periods of service under special circumstances before the entry into force of this Law are counted towards length of service on appropriate preferential terms established by the legislation of the former USSR;
c) along with service in military formations and internal affairs bodies of the Republic of Belarus, service (including on appropriate preferential terms) in military formations and internal affairs bodies of the former USSR and member states of the Commonwealth of Independent States is also counted towards the length of service for the purpose of pensions;

Pensions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018: will there be an increase, latest news Important Insurance pension: insurance pension provision Former employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who continue to officially work in the civil service have the right to count on receiving an insurance pension provision. To do this, the following conditions must be met:
According to the transitional provisions of Article 35 of the Federal Law “On Insurance Pensions”, the value of the IPC required to establish an old-age insurance pension is subject to regular annual increases by 2.4 points until it reaches 30 points by 2025.
The funded part of pensions has been frozen, payments for it can only be received after the final termination of employment. Regarding pension accrual for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The satisfaction of law enforcement officers who have completed their official careers has been under the close attention of the country's leadership for the last four years.
The legislative acts adopted by the President were supposed to increase pensions by 10%. But not immediately, but in six stages. The latest decisions of the president suggest that the Ministry of Internal Affairs pension in 2018 will be calculated in points, which are calculated monthly and later converted into ruble equivalent. The number of points directly depends on the salary level.
Pensions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018: will there be an increase, the latest news of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018: will there be an increase, the latest news Reorganization of the pension system In subsequent years, the labor pension underwent transformation, which was divided into an insurance and funded part. It was assumed that the retirement age would not increase. It was also planned to introduce a mechanism that would encourage citizens to go out later.
Pensions in Russia 2018 Pensions in Russia 2018 Search the site The principle of accrual in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018 will also change. Presumably, the cash allowance for security forces will increase significantly, but by how much percent and in what time frame is still unknown. But it is already clear that to obtain it you will have to work in the relevant authorities for a slightly longer amount of time than now.
How the pension payment system works now for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs The deep economic crisis that hit the production and financial systems of many countries has had the most negative impact on Russia. The cost of energy resources collapsed, foreign companies limited their investments to a minimum and even liquidated some of the already operating projects in the Russian Federation. The state had to adapt to the new realities of life and introduce a regime of austerity of budget money.
This is a fairly large amount of pension payments, because in other areas people receive much less. It is not surprising that today many Russians strive to build a military career, because despite the everyday inconveniences associated with military service, a citizen who has successfully coped with all the hardships of military life can expect a comfortable old age. Also, the Deputy Minister of Defense recently noted that there is no accurate information yet on additional payments to military pensioners. It is possible that the positive situation in the economy will allow the state to increase the income of its citizens. By the way, the coefficient that is needed to determine the size of a military man’s pension has been 72.23% of the military man’s salary since January.
Military pensions will be increased in 4 stages: when and by how much will payments increase?
Indexation of pensions for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in 2018 This summer, the Interdepartmental Working Group under the Security Council apparatus prepared a draft development strategy for the Russian Federation for 2018-2024. In the direction of “Increasing the defense capability and security of the state,” the Ministry of Internal Affairs became the central figure. The proposed changes should affect almost all departments, which will also affect pension provision.
One of the proposals is to issue driver’s licenses and passports to civil departments - Rosreestr, Ministry of Justice. Accordingly, employees of the department who previously dealt with these issues will leave the subordination of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and will no longer be able to count on military pensions. Most likely, employees of the forensic unit of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will lose their special status.
The same applies to law enforcement officers who, having retired based on length of service rather than age, decided to continue their careers.
