Legislator summary

The Insurance Court dismissed the applicant's claim for a pension based on a 1983 agreement regarding early retirement without reaching the statutory age. The court determined that the pension must be calculated according to the state pension laws in force at the time the service relationship ended in 1996, not at the time of the agreement. Consequently, the decision by the State Pension Board was upheld as it correctly applied the temporal validity of the relevant statutes.

State Pension Act 280/66; State Pension Board Act 809/81: A pension agreement concluded before the 1997 reform must be calculated based on the statutory provisions applicable at the time the service relationship terminates, rendering claims based on pre-reform eligibility rules inadmissible if they contradict the final calculation date.

A toimiessaan teknillisen tarkastuslaitoksen piiripäällikön sopimuspalkkaisessa virassa oli 22.12.1983 solminut sopimuksen, jonka mukaan hän oli sopinut valtion eläkelain 8 §:n 4 momentin b kohdan (809/81) perusteella eläkeoikeuden syntymisestä ilman eläkeiän saavuttamista. Sopimuksessa oli ollut maininta A:lla olevan oikeus eläkkeeseen valtion eläkelain (280/66) säännösten mukaisesti. A on valtion eläkelain nojalla voinut sopia vain eläkeoikeuden syntymisestä ilman eläkeiän saavuttamista. Siten A:n eläkettä ei voitu määrätä sopimuksen tekohetkellä voimassa olleiden valtion eläkelain säännösten mukaisesti, vaan eläke määrätään palvelussuhteen päättymisen 30.9.1996 eli eläketapahtumahetken voimassa olevien säännösten perusteella. Valtion eläkelautakunnan päätöstä ei muutettu.
