Islamabad:
The Federal Government approved relief for employees who withdraw after July 2025, resulting in an increase in pensions equal to all federal pensioners.
In a memorandum issued by the Ministry of Finance, the details of the increase in pension and the payment process were described. The memorandum confirms that all federal pensioners will receive the increase in the pension in equal conditions.
According to the memorandum, the relief includes the integration of five previous AD-Hoc relief assignments, granted between 2011 and 2024, in pension payments. The total cumulative percentage of these assignments amounts to 70%.
The memorandum clarifies that the reference pension for government employees will be considered as their net pension.
The Ministry of Finance also declared that the gross pension, except the switching pension, will include these five AD-Hoc reliefs. The five allocations include 15% increases in 2011, 7.5% in 2015, 15% in 2022, 17.5% in 2023 and 15% in 2024.
