The Pension Fund explained how to confirm work experience: a guide for Ukrainians.

According to inkorr.com: The press service of the Pension Fund of Ukraine has addressed citizens with advice on confirming insurance experience to receive a pension. To arrange for an insurance pension, it is necessary to have documents confirming your work experience. Information about work experience after 2004 can be obtained from the register of insured persons in the pension system.

In case of loss of the employment record book

If the employment record book is lost, damaged, or contains errors

The employment record book is the main document confirming your work activities up to 2004. If it is lost, damaged, or has errors, there is no need to panic. You can provide references from employers, documents about salary payments, certificates, and other materials that testify to your work.

Additional ways to confirm work experience

• If documents are lost or absent in the register, work experience can be confirmed by the testimonies of two persons who worked with you. It is also important to have documents confirming work in harmful conditions or during the liquidation of the enterprise.

If you encounter difficulties in confirming your work experience, you can contact special commissions of the Pension Fund that use archival materials to resolve these issues.

Understanding the importance of confirming insurance experience for receiving a pension is a crucial task for Ukrainians. This will ensure their right to appropriate payments in the future. Following the recommendations of the Pension Fund of Ukraine is an important step in this process.
