iciHaïti - ONA : Historic Resolution for the Fairness and Sustainability of the Pension System
The National Old-Age Insurance Office (ONA) has just taken a decisive step in consolidating its pension system. Meeting in a workshop this week, the institution's Board unanimously adopted a major resolution concerning the calculation of pensions for insured individuals who contributed partially at the exceptional rate of 4%. This strong, long-awaited, and responsible decision closes a regulatory gap that had long been a source of uncertainty.

This initiative comes in a specific context. Some companies had exceptionally been authorized to contribute at the reduced rate of 4%, instead of the standard rate of 12%. Now, the insured individuals concerned are reaching retirement age, raising the question of the fair and legal calculation of their entitlements. Faced with this reality, the ONA has chosen action over inaction, clarity over ambiguity.

During two days of in-depth discussions (January 21 and 22), the Directors examined the issues of fairness among insured members, the financial sustainability requirements of the pension plan, and the need to ensure complete legal certainty for the institution's decisions. The conclusion was clear: the absence of a specific framework exposed the ONA (National Old Age Insurance Office) to risks of injustice, disputes, and financial imbalances.

The adopted resolution directly addresses these challenges. It establishes a fair, transparent, and legally sound approach, respectful of the contributory principle that underpins the ONA pension system. It guarantees that the pension rights of the insured members concerned will henceforth be calculated on clear, consistent, and sustainable bases, without creating inequalities with those who have contributed in full at the standard rate of 12%.

The implementation of this resolution will significantly reduce the risk of litigation, strengthen contributor confidence, and provide a lasting solution to an exceptional situation.
