Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the early-retirement reduction under the cantonal pension statutes must be calculated from the retirement date or only from the date pension payments begin after severance pay ends.
Decisione estratta
The reduction is calculated as of the retirement date; the later start of payment due to severance pay affects only the payout date, not the amount.
Motivazione estratta
The statutes fix the pension at the time of dismissal and refer only to retirement and age 63 as temporal reference points. Severance pay prevents double payment but is not part of the calculation rule. The scheme intentionally favors dismissed insured persons, and the reduction is the necessary actuarial correction.
