The Minimum Pension is the lowest allowable monthly pension paid to qualified retirees and disability pensioners. Even if a member’s computed pension is lower due to low income or irregular contributions, SSS applies a guaranteed minimum amount to ensure basic financial protection. The minimum pension is periodically reviewed and adjusted based on actuarial and policy considerations to maintain adequacy for low-income retirees.
