Teacher retirement: the six-month increase is 40.05%

The 171,591 retired and retired teachers will receive in September and until February 2023, an increase of 40.05% of its assets, according to ANSeS Circular 28/22, confirming Clarín’s advance.

If we consider that the previous March increase was 9.38%, without taking the monthly and semi-annual loss, will accumulate in 12 months, from February 2022 to February 2023, an increase of 53.2%, about 40 points below inflation on an annual basis, estimated at around 90/100%.

With these figures, retired teachers will have this year a loss of your assets of 25%. And compared to 2017, the accumulated decline will be 37%.

Never in such a short time have retired teachers suffered a real wage setback of this magnitude, which is explained by the fact that the teachers’ pension system provides for half-yearly increases in the months of March and September. With salary increases every 6 months, in the midst of a monthly inflation of between 5 and 7%, the loss of monthly and semi-annual income is very high.

For this reason, due to very high inflation, part of the increase in March 2022 was brought forward to December last year and the same pattern was expected to repeat itself in June, with a quarterly increase as far as they would correspond in September. .

But there has been no progress. Y in September they will apply an increase of 40.05%, which does not replace the previous loss nor the one they will have to face until February next year.

With these inflation levels and the 40.05% increase in September, this year from end to end, the real decline in these assets could be 25%, unless a supplement is granted in December or quarterly increments apply.

That loss adds to the one they have had in the previous 4 years.

The annual sequence, end to end, was:

• in 2018they received retired teachers two increases for a total of 22.3%, compared to an inflation of 47.6%. A drop of 17.1%.
• In 2019 the increase was 49.3% and inflation of 53.8%. A loss of 2.9%.
• in 2020 there was a partial recovery: the the increase in teachers was 40.8% against an inflation of 36.1%. An improvement of 3.4%.
• in 2021with the advance of December, the increase was 50.6% against an inflation of 50.9%. A drop of 0.3 points.
• in 2022: in December the the increase is 53.2% against an inflation of 90/100%. The loss could be 23.4%.

The differentiated increases for teachers are due to the fact that the sector pension law requires active workers to contribute two additional points (13% of the salary) and retire with 82% mobile corresponding to the position they had in business.

To determine the increases for the already retired, the Secretary of Social Security calculates the six-monthly change in the salaries of active teachers with contributions to ANSES, the so-called “Average Taxable Remuneration of Teachers” (RIPDOC).

In this way, retired teachers accompany the loss of active teachers to a greater extent.

For teacher retirement, 82% of mobile devices apply. Women retire at 57 and men at 60. if they had at least been in front of the students for 10 years.
