Islamabad:
The federal government approved retired employee repairs after July 2025, resulting in an equal pension increase for all federal retirees.
In a memorandum issued by the Ministry of Finance, details of the increase in pensions and the payment process have been described. The memorandum confirms that all federal retirees will receive the increase in the pension on an equal footing.
According to the memorandum, relief includes the integration of five previous ad hoc rescue benefits, granted between 2011 and 2024, in pension payments. The total cumulative percentage of these allowances is 70%.
The memorandum specifies that the reference pension for government employees will be considered their net pension.
The Ministry of Finance also declared that the gross pension, less the switched pension, would include these five ad hoc reliefs. The five allowances include increases of 15% in 2011, 7.5% in 2015, 15% in 2022, 17.5% in 2023 and 15% in 2024.
