Ce pensie iei dacă nu ai lucrat niciodată. Ce spune legea

Individuals who have never worked may wonder about their pension rights and potential benefits. Social pension is a state aid for low-income retirees, not based on work contributions. In 2026, this aid is set at 1,281 lei monthly, supplementing pensions below this threshold. To qualify for a standard pension, a minimum contribution period of 15 years is required, making it impossible for those without work history to receive a contributory pension. However, social pension can help those with low incomes, provided they meet legal requirements. The term 'social pension' can be misleading, as it does not replace contributory pensions.
