Millions of pensioners’ ears were converted to a hike rate to their salaries in July.
In addition to the compulsory hike legally, it is also wondered whether the welfare share of the government will be given.
SSI Chief and Türkiye Newspaper writer İsa Karakaş, in his article on the subject, gave the following statements:
With the announcement of TURKSTAT inflation in April, the excitement of retirees increased even more. Because the four -month inflation data was finalized. Only 2 months of data remained. According to the 4-month inflation data, the hikes of the pensioners of SSK, Bağ-Kur, Chamber and Bank Fund were examined.
Change in CPI (2003 = 100) increased by 3.00 %in April 2025 compared to the previous month, an increase of 13.36 %compared to December of the previous year, an increase of 37.86 %compared to the same month of the previous year and a 48.73 %increase compared to twelve -month averages.
However, retirees agree that inflation is much more than these figures. An update for pensions every 6 months in high inflation is a separate problem. Likewise, the salary is evaporated instantly. This is the application of the “Eşel Mobile” system on a monthly basis. In case of switching to this system, an update can be made by reflecting inflation rates on salaries every month without waiting for 6 months.
