Italy introduced major changes to its supplemental pension system on July 1, 2026, combining automatic enrollment for newly hired private-sector employees with greater flexibility over contributions, benefits, and future transfers.
The central change affects employees hired on or after July 1. With the exception of domestic workers, new private-sector employees are automatically enrolled in a supplemental pension plan unless they make a different choice within 60 days of starting work.
