Social Security benefits Social Security benefits are classified as non-contributory benefits and contributory benefits.

Non-contributory benefits are entirely financed by government and are payable to every Mauritian citizen under certain residency conditions.

These benefits include: Basic pensions which cater for the elderly, the invalids, the widows and the orphans, irrespective of their economic status.
Allowances such as Social Aid, Food Aid and Income Support, Unemployment Hardship Relief and Funeral Grant which are payable to the low-income group of the population.

 Inmates allowance and indoor relief payable to, or on behalf of, those Mauritians residing in government-subsidized institutions (such as old-people homes, infirmaries and orphanages) provided they would have otherwise benefited from a basic pension or from Social Aid.
Contributory benefits, on the other hand, are payable only to, or on behalf of, those persons who have paid contributions to the National Pensions Fund (NPF).

The contributory pensions include old age, invalidity, widows and orphans pensions in addition to industrial injury allowances.

The pension rates for non-contributory benefits are usually fixed at the beginning of each financial year.
In the case of contributory benefits, the allowances payable vary according to the amount contributed to the NPF by the insured worker.

For those persons whose contributions were marginal, government guarantees a minimum contributory pension.

2.

Non-contributory benefits 2.1 Basic Retirement Pensions (BRP) Basic Retirement Pension, also known as old-age pension, is payable to every Mauritian citizen aged 60 years and above subject to certain residency conditions.
It is to be noted that during the period December 2004 to June 2005, Basic Retirement Pension was not paid on a universal basis.

Persons aged 60 to 89 years were liable to pension subject to the amount of yearly income received.
The Severely Handicapped Basic Retirement pension (BRP/SH) is an additional allowance payable to old-age pensioners who are either Totally blind, or Suffer from total paralysis, or Need the constant care of another person - 7 - 2.2 Basic Widow's Pension (BWP) Basic Widow's Pension is payable to widows aged 15 to 59 years who were either civilly and/or religiously married and under certain conditions.
2.3 Basic Invalid's Pension (BIP) The Basic Invalid’s Pension is payable to any person aged 15 to 59 years, if certified by a Medical Board that the person is either permanently or substantially incapacitated to work to a degree of 60% or more for at least 12 months.

BIP recipients, who need the constant care and attention of another person, benefit from an additional allowance known as the Carer’s allowance.
2.4 Basic Orphan’s Pension & Guardian’s allowance (BOP) Basic Orphan’s Pension is payable to all orphans under the age of 15, or under 20 years of age if they are in full-time education.

2.5 Child’s allowance Child’s allowance is payable to children of beneficiaries of Basic Retirement Pension, Basic Widow’s Pension and Basic Invalid's Pension in respect of a child below 15 years, or below 20 years if in full-time education.

However, this allowance continues to be paid even after discontinuation of pensions to the parents for some reasons or another.
Child’s allowance is payable for up to three dependent children.

3 Other non-contributory social benefits 3.1 Social Aid Social Aid is an income-tested scheme.

It is payable to the head of a family who is incapable of earning his living adequately and who has insufficient means to support himself and his dependents.
Social Aid is payable to the poorer section of the population where the persons concerned are unable to earn a living, to the dependents of prisoners, to abandoned spouses/single mothers especially with dependent children.

It is also paid for a limited period in case of sudden loss of employment.

Other benefits granted to a social aid beneficiary are: free spectacles, wheelchairs, dentures, walking sticks and hearing aids.
Other allowances are: payments of examination fees - School Certificate (SC), General School Certificate (GCE), Higher School Certificate (HSC) and Industrial and Vocational Training Board (IVTB) Courses, funeral grant, refund of travelling to attend medical treatment, compassionate allowance for severe illness, carer’s allowance, allowance for purchase of rice and flour, allowances to centenarians for the purchase of medicines, allowances to fire victims, cyclone refugees and flood victims as well as bad weather allowance for fishermen.

- 8 - 3.2 Income Support for the purchase of rice and flour In order to support needy Mauritians for the purchase of rice and flour, the Food Aid Scheme was introduced in May 1993 when government subsidy on rice and flour was temporarily discontinued.
Under the Food Aid Scheme, a monthly stipend is given to every needy Mauritian for the purchase of rice and flour.

The beneficiaries are: All recipients of Social Aid and their dependents.

 All those receiving the Unemployment Hardship Relief.

 All needy beneficiaries of a basic pension under the National Pensions Act, i.e.
beneficiaries of Basic Retirement Pension, Basic Widow’s Pension, Basic Invalid’s Pension and Basic Orphan’s Pensions, who would have qualified to receive social aid if the basic pensions were not payable.

The monthly stipend has increased from Rs 30 in May 1993 to Rs 50 in October 2004.

This allowance was Rs 85, Rs100 then Rs115 as at 1 July of the year 2006, 2008 and 2009 respectively.
In addition, as from 1 July 2006 with the government discontinuation of subsidy on rice and flour, an Income Support scheme was introduced whereby a monthly allowance is given to: Any head of household and his/her dependents whose average monthly electricity consumption does not exceed 75 KWh and who are not in receipt of Food Aid.
Any beneficiary of basic pension and his/her dependents (under the National Pensions Act) and who would have been eligible to receive social aid if he/she was not in receipt of that basic pension.

This monthly allowance increased from Rs40 to Rs100 in July 2008 and further to Rs115 in July 2009.

3.3 Unemployment Hardship Relief The Unemployment Hardship Relief (UHR) is payable to unemployed heads of families whose family income is not sufficient to meet the needs of the members.
