the first measure of The new Government has been to raise the pension by 0.9%. The increase will notice the pensioners on the payroll of February. But as the raise will be retroactive from January 1, pensioners will also receive a small paguilla that will compensate for the delay and will consolidate in their respective payrolls. Taking into account that the average pension-contributory Social Security was in December 995,76 euros, the increase will be about nine euros. With this, the average will exceed the bar symbolic of 1,000 euros.

But the average data masks the wide disparity in pensions that there is and does not clarify what will be the maximum pension, or how much it will amount to a minimum. Easier to calculate is the maximum, it will rise at nearly 24 euros, the pass of 2.659,41 euros a month to 2.683,34 euros. If it is calculated on computation annual, the maximum pension will reach eur 37.566,76 euros, which leave from to multiply by 14 (counting the two extraordinary) that amount monthly.

When speaking of the minimum, the situation is complicated because the lowest pensions are a function of the personal situation of the beneficiary (not the same as having dependants or not), you have more or less than 65 years and the type of service that is perceived (retirement, widowhood, disability). Advertised by Pedro Sánchez in the debate of investiture is that these pensions were going to upload more of that 0.9 per cent announced yesterday for the 11.1 million of public pensions in Spain (Social Security and passive types or officials retired), or almost 10.5 million pensioners.
