To the great regret of the French, the pension reform has indeed been adopted and must be implemented from September 1st. For future retirees, it is therefore a retirement at age 64 and an increase in the insurance period to 43 annuities, which are now planned. In this stormy context, some good news such as a minimum pension, a premium for mothers or the support of assisted contracts in the calculation of the pension are part of the measures. This last modification was eagerly awaited by some future retirees. Explanations.

Who says pension reform, says big changes for future retirees. If current retirees will not suffer the effects of the new pension reform, the generations concerned will face a staggered retirement. While systems allowing people to leave earlier are put in place, particularly in the context of long careers or even difficult jobs, this two-year increase continues to arouse controversy among the French.

It must be said that the unions and the opposition tried to the end to have this highly controversial text withdrawn. Last week, the Liot group thus tried, during its parliamentary niche, to vote for the repeal of the pension reform, but finally had to delete its text from the debates. The main article had thus been deleted during the preliminary discussions, which prompted the group to backtrack. A great disappointment for the French, who were impatiently awaiting this last possibility.

At the heart of this pension reform, some changes will come to relieve the French concerned. For the recipients of subsidized contracts, in the 1980s, support was thus born, whereas this prospect had always been ruled out. People who have carried out works of collective utility (TUC) will therefore be included in this system.

For people who participated in the Barre plan between 1977 and 1988 or completed young volunteer internships, internships for initiation to professional life or local integration programs, their retirement pension will be taken into account.

In total, more than a million young people signed this type of contract at the time. While the lack of support for these quarters represented a flagrant lack of retirement pensions, this measure reassures the main concerned.

The law thus provides that these periods worked make it possible to obtain quarters of retirement and now enter into the accounting of the contribution period. It is, in fact, provided that 50 days of professional training courses give the right to the validation of a quarter. Modeled on that of the quarters granted in respect of compensated unemployment, this principle must be clarified later in a decree in Council of State.
