The retirement pension may consist of several distinct elements, governed by different attribution rules. The first element is the main advantage of direct right. It is acquired in return for the professional activity and thus the contributions paid (and validations of quarters acquired) related thereto. This benefit may be transferred to the surviving spouse upon the death of the beneficiary. This is referred to as a derivative right benefit, often referred to as a survivor's pension, which can be cumulated with a principal direct benefit.
