The federal government has approved a relief package for employees retiring on or after July 1, 2025. Under this package, all federal pensioners will receive equal increases in their pensions.
The Federal Ministry of Finance has issued an official memorandum regarding pensions. According to the memo, the increase and payment of pensions apply to employees retiring on or after July 1, 2025.
The memo states that all federal pensioners will get equal pension increases. According to the memorandum, five previous ad-hoc relief allowances given between 2011 and 2024 will now be considered part of the pension. The total value of these five allowances is up to 70 percent.
It has been clarified that the baseline pension of government employees will now be considered their net pension. As per the Ministry of Finance, the five ad-hoc reliefs will be added after deducting the lump-sum portion from the gross pension.
These five previous pension increases will be included in the net pension of federal government employees. For example, ad-hoc relief of 15 percent was given in 2011 and 7.5 percent in 2015.
The Finance Ministry further explained that 15 percent relief was given in 2022, 17.5 percent in 2023, and again 15 percent in 2024.
