UPDATE!!!
Proposed Monthly Contribution (Deduction) under the Military and Uniformed Personnel (MUP) Pension System
According to Former Department of Finance (DOF) Sec. Benjamin Diokno, their contributions will initially be small and progressively increase over time: 5% of their salary in the first three years, 7% in the next three years, and then 9% in subsequent years.
Current
Finance Secretary Ralph Recto said that he expressed support for reforming the
military and uniformed personnel’s (MUP) pension system.
“What
we can do for the reform is that all new entrants, for example, January 1,
2025, will have a different pension system similar to what civilians have that
they will contribute now to, let’s say, the GSIS (Government Service Insurance
System). That there will be a contribution system moving forward,”
Recto added.
To illustrate the computation above, 5% will be
deducted from the patrolman’s basic salary and another 5% from his longevity
pay (long pay). However, with the 5% deduction of long pay, you have to add the
base pay to get the ₱1,631.74 as shown above.
5% Base Pay
5% of Patrolman’s Base Pay is ₱1,483.40
5% from Long Pay
(Base Pay + Long Pay)
₱29,668 + ₱2,966.80 = ₱32,634.80
5% of ₱32,634.80 is ₱1,631.74
Add them together (₱1,483.40 + ₱1,631.74), and a total of ₱3,115.14 will be deducted monthly from the patrolman’s payslip as part of the proposed pension scheme, which is possible this year or next year.
