Continuous length of service is the amount of continuous work performed by an industrial or nonindustrial worker or employee at a single enterprise, establishment, or organization and, for kolkhoz members, at the same kolkhoz. The length of continuous service is taken into account in determining the amount of benefits granted for temporary disability and pension supplements granted to industrial and nonindustrial workers and employees. (The Great Soviet Encyclopedia, 3rd Edition (1970-1979))

Pensioners can also qualify for a pension supplement (a regular extra payment for utility, phone, internet and medicine costs) and an energy supplement (an extra payment to help with power bills) which can increase the overall payment. (ABC News)
