It was announced that the grievances of Retirement Age Victims (EYT) would be ended and the EYT law, which was expected by millions, was approved.
However, the delay of the law until after the New Year's has caused EYT members to not be able to benefit from the 30 percent pension increase. The loss, on the other hand, reached about 15 percent.
“MANY EYT PENSIONERS SENTENCED TO A SALARY OF 5,500 LIRA”
EYT Federation President Gönül Boran Özüpak, who made special statements to our newspaper regarding the salary grievances of EYT members, emphasized that EYT members do not accept pensions at the social aid level.
Özüpak pointing out the service of SGK, "How much pension do I receive?" said, "As of the past day, we have all been disappointed with the salary fees we have seen on the Social Security Institution (SGK) website."
The salaries of EYT pensioners were increased between 10 percent and 17 percent. Only in April, a 1.5 percent growth share will be added to our salaries.
“Is this the reward for our 30 years of labor?”
“By the end of December, the law on EYT members would be off the table. However, it was left on a protracted basis,” said BORAN ÖZÜPAK, and used the following statements:
"Today, we are approaching the end of January, but it is not clear when the EYT law will come to the Parliament and when it will enter into force. While this is the case, we wonder if such a path was followed so that EYT pensioners would not benefit from the 30 percent raise for retirees."
“LET THEM TRY TO LIVE FOR 1 MONTH WITH THE MONEY SEEN”
"Increases between 10 percent and 17 percent for EYT members, unfortunately, do not see 5,500 TL. But since it is a basic pension, many EYT members were sentenced to a salary of 5,500 TL. Those who want to bring the EYT law to the Parliament in its current form and have it approved should try to make a living with 5,500 TL, which is considered acceptable to EYT pensioners," Özüpak added.
