According to a recently released office memorandum regarding pension matters, the Federal Ministry of Finance has authorized relief measures for workers retiring on or after July 1, 2025.
The memorandum states that an increase in pensions will be distributed equally to all federal pensioners. Pensions will increase by up to 70% as a result of the integration of five ad hoc relief allowances that were granted between 2011 and 2024.
The Ministry of Finance explained that government employees’ baseline pension will be considered their net pension. Five ad hoc relief allowances will be applied to the gross pension after the commuted amount has been subtracted.
