How can employees receive a pension?
Currently, the social insurance company pays out the pensions through one of two main methods:
– Pay cash to the employee or the employee’s authorized representative
Depending on the registered location, the employee or the employee’s nominee can receive the pension directly from the Social Insurance Bureau or Postal System to sign a contract with the Social Insurance Bureau to pay the pension and social insurance benefit and administration of the beneficiaries.
– Pay pensions through employee personal accounts at banks
The pension is credited to the account registered by the employee on a monthly basis. However, the social insurance company only accepts the official bank account of the retiree.
When registering an account number in the name of someone else, the social insurance company does not treat pension benefits in this way.
