Rewritten Title: Landmark Financial Support Package Finalized for Iranian Retirees
In a significant development for state pensioners, a comprehensive package of benefits and subsidies has been confirmed and disbursed, marking a proactive step in addressing their economic welfare.
November Payments Disbursed with Enhanced Benefits
The November pension for retirees of the oil industry has been successfully transferred to their accounts. This payment included not only the standard pension but also incorporated increased athletic stipends for children and essential goods subsidies for spouses and dependents, in full compliance with existing regulations.
Tax Reimbursements and Healthcare Refunds
Official announcements confirm the full reimbursement of taxes related to nine subsidiary companies of the National Iranian Oil Company, including entities in international affairs, healthcare, oil terminals, and other covered organizations.
Furthermore, retirees who had personally paid for healthcare co-payments since the start of the current Iranian year have now been reimbursed for 5% of these costs. This refund, identified by code 1201, was included in their November pension payment.
Payment Schedule and Arrears Settlement
The Oil Industry Retirement Fund has clarified that the process for depositing monthly pensions typically occurs between the 20th and 23rd of each month. All announced benefit arrears for November have been fully paid. Calculations for the essential goods subsidy for another group of retirees’ spouses are also finalized, with the funds scheduled for deposit by the end of this week.
Additionally, this month’s payment includes combatant gratuities and goods subsidies calculated from the year’s beginning, ensuring all corresponding arrears are comprehensively covered.
Ongoing Dialogue on Pensioner Welfare
In related discourse, a statement from a group of Social Security Organization retirees and pensioners has been directed to government and parliamentary officials. The communication underscores the vital role of the Social Security Organization in safeguarding the livelihoods of millions of households and calls for continued attention to economic conditions and pension adjustments.
The statement outlines key requests, including the full implementation of existing social security laws, enhanced coordination between government branches to allocate sufficient financial resources, and a call for transparent and immediate action by the Social Security Organization to uphold retirees’ legal rights. It emphasizes that these requests are rooted in the pursuit of justice and the establishment of lawful and humane rights for the hardworking retired community, whose contributions through years of regular insurance payments have been instrumental in national development.
The role of the High Council of Retirees and Pensioners is highlighted as crucial for providing transparent information and fostering trust between retirees and responsible institutions. The collective appeal concludes by urging high-ranking officials to take effective and prompt measures to improve the living conditions of retirees and alleviate economic pressures, reinforcing social harmony and stability.
