Italy 2026 fiscal, labour and social welfare reforms
Overview
In August 2026, Italy expanded its social welfare and pension landscape. Households with an ISEE below €9,530 (or below €20,000 for families with four or more dependents) receive an automatic 25% discount on waste tax (Tari). Additionally, an ISEE below €35,000 remains a key threshold for various state aids, including nursery school bonuses and the Universal Single Allowance. Regarding social security, INPS announced pension tax adjustments for September 2026 via the 730/2026 model; approximately 4.5 million pensioners are due refunds, while 500,000 face deductions to recover underpaid Irpef. September 2026 payments begin on Tuesday, September 1, for bank and Poste Italiane accounts. Pensioners who failed to report 2022 income by the September 15 deadline face a 5% deduction of their July 2026 pension amount. Looking toward 2027, pension requirements are set to increase due to life expectancy adjustments. The old-age pension age will rise to 67 years and one month, while ordinary early retirement will require 42 years and 11 months of contributions for men and 41 years and 11 months for women. Political debate has intensified following a Lega party proposal, supported by Undersecretary Claudio Durigon, to allow early retirement at age 64 for workers in the mixed pension system who began working before 1996 and have at least 25 years of contributions. The Cgil trade union opposes this, warning that a full contributory recalculation could reduce monthly benefits by approximately 10% to 10.6%. The union also criticized the proposal to use severance pay (TFR) to bridge pension gaps, calling it a transfer of costs onto workers. In early September 2026, INPS President Gabriele Fava proposed a state-funded savings booklet for newborns. The initiative suggests the state contribute at least €1,000 annually to a personal account for every newborn until they enter the workforce.
