The pension is awarded to Russian citizens at the age of 55 for women and 60 for men. However, there are some categories of citizens who can retire earlier for special merit, because of working conditions, health reasons or seniority.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, the right to an early retirement pension is granted to all employees of hazardous industries. All those who work underground, in mines, in ports or in the shipping and fishing industries, in the far north, logging, in hazardous chemical production, in the hot shop, have the right to finish work and retire before the rest of the employees. This is understandable: work that is fraught with danger, high expenditure of physical strength, cannot be performed for a long time. Therefore, people who have been employed in these places for 10-25 years deserve to go on a well-deserved rest a little earlier than others. Each type of work has its own minimum length of service.
Step 2
The right to an early retirement pension can be used by employees of professions associated with danger to life, with severe physical and psychological stress, saving lives. These are firefighters, police and colony guards, security workers on the metro and railways, rescuers, and public transport drivers. It is believed that attention and concentration can lead such a worker to old age, so he will not be able to fully ensure the safety of others.
Step 3
According to the same principle, pilots of military and civil aviation are sent to the reserve earlier - their work is associated with huge risks for passengers and only strong and physically healthy people can ensure safe piloting. For geologists, hydrologists, surveyors working in prospecting and exploration work, there is also the opportunity to leave their place ahead of schedule for the sake of a well-deserved rest in old age.
Step 4
If a woman was engaged in heavy male work, for example, worked on a construction machine or tractor, or in the textile industry, in a production that requires special intensity, she can leave her job before reaching 55 years of age and receive a pension.
Step 5
Activities that exhaust a person psychologically can also reduce the required length of service. So, doctors and school teachers can work 25-30 years before retirement. Theater actors and cultural figures will have to work for 15 to 30 years before receiving a pension certificate.
Step 6
Those who take care of other people - mothers who have at least 5 children, guardians caring for disabled children, disabled people who were injured during hostilities, disabled people of group I by sight - can also receive a pension early.
