Question 13668 — pensions: general

Summary

Mrs. Laure Miller draws the attention of the Minister of Labor and Solidarity to the consequences of the new rules relating to the combination of employment and retirement provided for in the social security financing law (LFSS) for 2026. Since the 2023 reform, the accumulation of employment and retirement has allowed retirees, under certain conditions, to return to work and, in certain cases, to acquire new rights. For many, this device constituted a useful balance: supplementing a sometimes insufficient pension, gradually passing on an activity or continuing to practice by choice and commitment. The reform resulting from the LFSS for 2026 significantly modifies this balance by establishing a more restrictive logic before age 67, in particular through a reinforced pension capping mechanism and a limitation on the acquisition of new rights. If the objective of financial sustainability can be understood, these new rules raise serious concerns on the ground. In many territories, combining employment and retirement plays a concrete role in maintaining economic activity, the transfer of farms or businesses, as well as in the continuity of certain essential services. Too rigid a framework could discourage experienced professionals from continuing their activity and ultimately produce effects contrary to the desired objective. In this context, she asks him how the Government intends to ensure that the terms of capping and application of this reform do not lead to discouraging the combination of employment and retirement and do not further weaken territories or sectors already under pressure such as agriculture or medicine for example.
