On the issue of retirement retroactives and issuing times of pensionprincipal and auxiliary, reported his deputy commander EFKA Panagiotis Kokkoris speaking to ERTNEWS today (18.05.2025).
The Deputy Governor of EFKA stressed, inter alia: “First, in relation to the main and auxiliary. In principle, more importantly in the issuance of the main pensions. We also had the fast track process, and this was done so that the pensioner could get an amount of at least 80, 70 or 90 % accordingly.
In relation to the auxiliary now, those in principle. When we have 100 funds that have been merged, when there is paper material, when there is no record of all insurance life. Why?
In order to issue an auxiliary pension a basic requirement is to issue the main pension.
And in order to issue the main pension there must be the recording of insurance life.
There are no mistakes, there is no successive and all the rest. And then, after these conditions are met, then there is a complete record of the public insurance life and the supplementary pension can be issued immediately and therefore we have about 1000, 1000 lump sums, which are a consequence of both the auxiliaries and a few auxiliaries around 9,000. As far as ETEAM is concerned and this is not in the auxiliary, it is in branches.
In the State, in particular, insurance life has been recorded, unless one has IKA before working, but there are automatically coming out the auxiliary.
Eg flour. How could they be issued when the calculation of insurance life was correctly based on the pounds of flour, that is, the invoices that were issued?
How can the auxiliary metal fund be calculated?
As for engineers and others, you know that on -the -spot visits are made there.
It is about 50 million I would say, paper paper pages that need to be digitized. As far as the auxiliary is concerned, there is no digitization at all, and we are now waiting for the scanning that is being done, we can be able to get in the process of processing the employee in the middle of the processing process, and if there is a small mistake, then come to be corrected in order to be attributed faster.
We estimate that in one year it will be digitized. This does not mean that they are not issued. More and more are issued every day. Staff makes up intensive efforts.
When an insurance system has been made without planning, merger, when we take all the funds without design and put them in a sack and then let’s stand out, you realize that it is a very complex and difficult process to lead the result to you.
I was the head of the committee that we set up then the KEA and there we must keep in mind that all the funds were in. They were funds that had a collection mechanism, such as the IKA, while the OAEE of the merchants had no collecting mechanism, sent the amounts to public financial services.
Public financial services made a tab, returned them and so on. “
