Overview
- INPS, which issued message No. 787 on March 5, will review old-age pensions for former public workers and repay shortfalls with interest and monetary revaluation.
- The agency had used tougher payout rates from the 2024 budget on old-age cases even though lawmakers limited them to early retirements.
- The fix applies to members of four former public-sector funds covering local authorities, health staff, nursery and parificate primary teachers, and judicial officers.
- Reports describe an uncertain scope, with estimates from tens of thousands of recalculations to broader ex-INPDAP groups, and a prior Senate estimate put early costs near €40 million before arrears and interest.
- Separately, INPS circular No. 42 confirms the 2026 Bonus Giorgetti, which lets eligible employees who put off retirement receive their 9.19% worker contribution in their paycheck tax-free.
