The permanence allowance is a benefit granted to permanent civil servants linked to the Social Security System who choose to continue working after reaching the requirements for retirement.
This financial incentive is a way of valuing experience and continuity in public service, providing extra remuneration to the civil servant who decides to remain in activity.
As a rule, this allowance is equivalent to the amount of the civil servant’s monthly social security contribution and will be received until retirement is actually granted or until the requirements for compulsory retirement are met.
Civil servants need to be aware of these rules in order to know the best time to apply for retirement or choose to continue in public service, so as to take advantage of the benefits in a strategic way.
For more information on the possibility of granting a permanence allowance, consult specialized professionals to understand the implications of the regulatory changes and how they impact on your rights.
