Title: New Financial Support Packages Disbursed to Retirees, Official Announces
In a significant move to bolster the welfare of retirees, the State Pension Fund has initiated the disbursement of new essential loan packages, a senior official announced.
Essential Loans Distributed
Alaeddin Azouji, the Acting Head of the State Pension Fund, confirmed that a new round of 50 million Toman essential loans has been deposited into the accounts of 33,000 eligible retirees. This initiative is part of the fund’s ongoing support programs, specifically designed to assist with retirees’ living expenses.
Complementary Hampad Loan Scheme
Alongside the essential loans, the fund has concurrently executed the ‘Hampad’ loan scheme for qualified postgraduate retirees. Payments were made to 257 individuals, including 148 Master’s degree holders receiving 10 million Tomans and 109 PhD holders receiving 15 million Tomans.
Commitment to Timely and Fair Disbursement
Emphasizing the importance of maintaining this support, Azouji stated, “A precise payment schedule is one of our main priorities. We are striving to ensure the fund’s facilities reach retirees with greater speed, accuracy, and fairness.”
Future Plans for Expanded Welfare
Responding to repeated requests from retirees for a broader range of services, Azouji also outlined future directions. He indicated that the State Pension Fund is actively working to diversify welfare services, facilities, and programs. This expansion aims to leverage the capacities of subsidiary companies and available economic resources to allow retirees to benefit from an increased number of advantages.
