The death pension for retirees shall be paid until the month of death, and funeral allowance and pension shall be additionally paid according to the specific standards of the province where the retirees live. According to Article 17 of the Social Insurance Law, if a retired employee dies of illness or non work related death, the basic pension fund shall pay funeral subsidies and pensions. But at present, there is no unified treatment policy for enterprise retirees who die of illness or non work related death in China. The retirement expenses have been planned as a whole at the provincial level, and the treatment for enterprise retirees who die of illness or non work related death is stipulated by each province, municipality directly under the Central Government, and autonomous region, but the regulations vary from place to place, and the gap is large. For example, Hubei Province stipulates that the funeral allowance is 3 months of the average salary of the employees of the prefecture and city in the previous year, the one-time pension is 10 months of the average salary of the employees of the prefecture and city in the previous year, and the living allowance for survivors is the minimum living allowance; According to the regulations of Sichuan Province, the funeral allowance is calculated and paid according to the average salary of employees in the previous year for 4 months, and the one-time pension is calculated and paid according to the pension of retired employees who died for 8 months in the last month. If death benefits of retirees are involved, it is recommended to consult the local social insurance administration.
