acréscimo de pensão

acréscimo de pensão (a top-up for working while drawing a pension)
A top-up to the pension of someone who carries on working after it has been granted. It is calculated from the previous year's earnings, is added automatically and is paid in March or, failing that, in November. The amounts are modest: on a salary of €1,400 a month the top-up comes to about €2 a month.
Where you come across it. Working after retiring on an old-age pension or a relative invalidity pension.
You do not need to apply: it is granted automatically. A working pensioner pays contributions at a reduced rate of 23.9 per cent.
