SSPF distributes plastic cards to pensioners in rural zones

As APA informs, in general, SSPF has distributed plastic cards to 505 thousand retirees of far and this number forms 40% of labour pensioners. That was stated by the SSPF Chair Salim Muslumov.

According to Mr.Muslumov, pensioners living in rural territories are given plastic cards on a voluntary basis.

The regional departments of SSPF were instructed for this purpose: "If pensioners living in rural zones apply for plastic cards, they are immediately provided with such cards. Because there are no cash machines in rural places, retirees must decide themselves how and where from they will obtain their pensions by means of plastic cards".
