HAYPOST TO PAY FIRST PENSIONS ON JANUARY 4-5 IN 2011
Tert.am
29.12.10
Retirement benefits for December 2010 will be paid from January 4 to
5 next year, Armenia's Minister of Labor and Social Issues Arthur
Grigoryan said, following the signing of an agreement between the
ministry and Haypost.
Based on the agreement, as of now the retirement benefits in Yerevan
will be paid in cash through Haypost too.
The move follows a government decision to dissolve the state service
of the payment of social benefits, which was in charge of paying the
social and retirement benefits in Yerevan.
In provinces the retirement and social benefits are paid through
Haypost already.
Speaking to journalists after the signing of the agreement, Grigoryan
said that from next year on pensions will be paid in two ways -
in cash and non-cash.
The payment in cash will be made by Haypost, while the non-cash
payments will be made through the banks that will sign agreements
with the ministry.
Paying the retirements benefits through Haypost, according to
Grigoryan, will eliminate corruption that was widespread previously.
He also assured the journalists that Haypost will make the payments in
due time and will also send notes to Yerevan residents, sending them
the addresses of the post offices that will deliver services to them.
Grigoryan further said that some of the employees of the state service
of the payment of social benefits (about 300) will receive a relevant
training and will be employed by Haypost.
