San Marino public sector labor and pension reforms

Overview

San Marino has implemented several measures regarding public sector employment and social security. Initially, a new decree was introduced allowing certain public administration and expanded public sector employees to postpone retirement until age 70, provided there is consent and a demonstrated public interest. This decree also includes provisions to cover social security gaps for Captains Regent during their six-month mandates.

Following these administrative changes, the government and labor unions reached a wage agreement for public employees. The deal includes a 3% wage increase for 2025 and a 2% increase for 2026. Francesca Busignani, General Secretary of USL, stated that the objective is to conclude the full contract by the end of the year. The Partito dei Socialisti e dei Democratici (PSD) welcomed the decision as a vital step toward restoring purchasing power lost to rising living costs since 2014.

While the agreement covers public administration employees and workers at the State Autonomous Production Company, the National Federation of Pensioners (FNPS-CDLS) has called for similar protections for retirees. The federation argues that the 2.20% revaluation mandated by 2022 legislation is inadequate given that inflation reached 3.2% in July. Additionally, the FNPS-CDLS warned that expected tax reforms could reduce net disposable income for many pensioners by 2026, particularly affecting former cross-border workers, maintaining that pensions should be protected from inflation as earned income.
