Benefits paid after reaching the standard minimum pensionable age

The benefits paid after reaching the standard minimum pensionable age calculated, similar to the bridging allowance (56 years of age), in the same way as a standard old-age pension. The amount is however limited to 50 per cent. The calculation is based on the individual standard minimum pensionable age.

The benefits paid after reaching the standard minimum pensionable age are on principle only granted for not more than 24 months, with periods of renewed employment in the seafaring industry excluded.
