Supplementary Retirement of a Public Service Contract (Ircantec)
Verified 01 January 2022 - Legal and Administrative Information Directorate (Prime Minister)
If you work in the civil service as a contractor, you must contribute to a supplementary pension scheme to the basic old-age insurance scheme of the Social Security. This compulsory supplementary pension scheme isIrcantec: titleContent.
TheIrcantec: titleContent is a point-based supplementary pension scheme.
Thus, your contributions (employees and employers) are converted into points, based on Ircantec point acquisition value (also called reference salary
The points thus obtained are accumulated throughout your career as a contract agent.
When you retire, the amount of your pension is obtained by multiplying the number of points earned by the liquidation value of the point (or service value) effective on the date of your departure.
The acquisition value (to determine the number of points earned) and the liquidation value of the retirement point shall be revalued annually.
You must contribute to the Ircantec if you are a contractual member of the civil service (state, territorial or hospital).
The additional pension contributions paid each month from your remuneration and the contributions paid by your employer administration allow you to earn points.
Certain periods not worked and not contributed are eligible for free points.
If you have had at least 3 children, you can benefit from an increase in the total number of points.
These points are accumulated in an individual account (point account).
How are your contributions converted to points?
Your contributions are converted to points based on an amount (called acquisition value or reference salary) that evolves every year. The result is rounded up.
For 2022, the acquisition value for the number of retirement points shall be €5.083.
Example :
If the annual amount of your contributions and those of your administration in 2022 is equal to €1 000, you get 197 points (1000 /€5.083).
You can view online the number of points earned on your individual account through your personal space.
How are the free points awarded?
The periods not worked and not contributed which qualify for the award of free points are:
- Sick, maternity or adoption leave granted by Social Security for at least 30 consecutive days
- Periods of receipt of a disability pension from the general social security system
- Periods of receipt of an accident at work pension or occupational disease corresponding to a minimum of 2/3 incapacity
