In its contributory form, the retirement pension covers the loss of income suffered by a person who, having reached the established age, stops working as an employee or a self-employed worker, ending his or her working life, or reduces his or her job and salary in the terms legally set forth.
This pension is included within the protective aspects of the General Scheme and the Special Schemes included in the Social Security System, with the peculiarities and exceptions indicated in the respective Special Scheme for each case and form. Along with it, the old age pension from the residual SOVI Scheme remains.
