GN 01770.010 Overview of the Slovenian Social Security System
The Slovenian social insurance system provides old-age retirement, disability, and
survivor benefits.
The Slovenian social security system consists of a mandatory defined benefit pension
financed on a pay-as-you go basis, supplemented by a voluntary occupational pension
system and a voluntary tax-deductible savings scheme for employers and their employees.
The mandatory defined benefit system, which is a contributory program, covers almost
all residents of Slovenia.
