ES What is a retirement pension?
This is a financial benefit consisting of a lifelong, single and imprescriptible pension, which is granted to the worker when, due to age, he/she stops working, either totally or partially.

- Partial retirement: makes it possible to combine a pension from the social security system with a part-time job.
Workers who have reached the ordinary retirement age and meet the requirements may take advantage of this modality, provided that their working hours are reduced by between a minimum of 25% and a maximum of 50%, without the need for the simultaneous conclusion of a relief contract.
Retirement pension: requirements
- Age: To have fulfilled the ordinary agewith some exceptions.
- Minimum contribution periodFifteen years, at least two of which must have been within the fifteen years immediately preceding the time of entitlement.
- Causative event:
- Discharged workers: The day of cessation of activity.
- Assimilated workersThe date of submission of the application, except in the case of an enforced leave of absence, the date of termination of employment, and in the case of a transfer outside the national territory, the date of termination of employment.

Incompatibilities of retirement pensions
The receipt of the retirement pension is incompatible with:
- The performance of any work by the pensioner, whether employed or self-employed, which gives rise to his inclusion in the social security system.
- The holding of a post in the public sector or senior management positions.
However, the pension may be combined with the following jobs:
- Self-employment for which the annual income does not exceed the minimum wage on an annual basis.
- The exercise of the activity carried out on a self-employed basis by professional members.
- Persons "accessing" retirement will be able to combine their pension with part-time work under the terms of the pension scheme (partial retirement).
- Retirement pensioners may combine the receipt of the "accrued" pension with part-time work under the terms established (flexible retirement).
As a pensioner, you are obliged to inform the respective managing body of this before starting work.
