Pensie de 1.456 de lei după 35 de ani lucrați. De ce ajung unii pensionari cu pensii atât de mici? • Newsweek România

A pensioner receiving 1,456 lei after 35 years of work highlights the complexities of pension calculations in Romania. The pension amount is influenced not only by the years worked but also by the salaries earned and any special working conditions. The new pension law includes a formula that factors in years of contribution, annual salary, and additional points for special work conditions. Despite having worked for over 25 years, the lack of special work conditions and potentially low salaries can lead to a low pension. Stability points are awarded for longer contributions but do not always compensate for low earnings during the working years. Thus, two individuals with the same work duration can receive vastly different pensions based on their earnings and contributions.
