4 Things Welfare Does Beyond Retirement

Social security is not just about retirement payments to workers: there are other benefits that are provided by workers, making them even more important in people's lives. Check out some resources offered by Social Security, in addition to retirement.

1. Maternity pay

Assistance given to women who are absent from work because of childbirth, non-criminal abortion, adoption or judicial custody for adoption purposes. It has a duration of 120 days. In cases of spontaneous or legal abortion, the benefit lasts 14 days.

2. Sickness allowance

Benefit that the worker receives when unable to perform his professional activity as a result of illness or accident for a period exceeding 15 days. The person needs to go through a medical examination and will receive assistance while away.

3. Prison aid

Payment due to dependents of prisoners in detention during the detention period. The insured cannot be receiving salary or other benefits. In addition, his last salary may not have been higher than R $ 1, 364.43 (ceiling in effect since January 2019).

4. Pension on death

When an insured or retired worker dies, his dependents may receive a pension. The period for which the person will receive this assistance varies according to their age at the date of death of the insured.

Considering that the Brazilian population, by 2050, will have more grandparents than grandchildren, Nova Previdência tries to ensure that everyone can receive benefits in the future. But will the contribution rates for those who receive less be equal to those for those who receive more? Not! Those who earn less will pay less and those who earn more will pay more.

Another important piece of information about New Welfare is that all working classes will participate. Military, civil servants, private sector employees and even politicians. And for those who have retired, nothing will change. Do not be in doubt, visit the site brasil.gov.br/novaprevidencia and check all the details about the New Pension.
