Title: Iranian Government Approves Significant Pension Increase for Social Security Recipients
In a move that underscores the government’s commitment to social welfare, Iran’s First Vice President has officially enacted a major increase to all pensions administered by the Social Security Organization.
The approval, formalized through official decree number 94059, puts into effect a decision made by the Council of Ministers in a recent session. This resolution mandates a rise in all retirement, disability, and survivor pensions that were established for recipients by the end of the previous Persian calendar year (March 2024).
This development is a direct result of the state’s continuous efforts to safeguard the livelihoods of its citizens, particularly those who have served the nation throughout their working lives. The increase applies to a wide range of beneficiaries under the social security law, ensuring broader economic support for families across the country.
The government’s proactive measure to enhance pension benefits reflects a strategic focus on economic justice and reinforces the social safety net for millions of Iranians, aligning with broader national policies aimed at improving citizen welfare and ensuring sustained economic stability.
