In Ukraine, since January 1, the pensions of 2.3 million people have increased by an average of 295 UAH.
The Ministry of Social Policy reports this on the official Facebook page. “The increase in the minimum wage from 5000 to 6000 UAH led to an increase in the size of the minimum old-age pension for retirees over 65 who have experience in insurance, namely: 35 years for men, 30 for women (40% of the minimum wage of 6000 UAH) “, – says the message.
As a result, the minimum pension for such pensioners is 2,400 UAH, and the average growth rate is 295 UAH.
In addition, they will continue to pay an additional 500 UAH to retirees who have already turned 80. There is a separate rule for them: if they have 20 years of experience for women and 25 years of experience for men, they should receive at least 2.6 thousand UAH.
Note that as OBOZREVATEL has already reported, the increase in pensions in March should be around 11%. For example, with a pension of 3.5 thousand UAH, the amount of the increase can be about 385 UAH. If the decision is postponed from March, for example, to December, the Ukrainians will lose 3.4 thousand UAH.
Earlier OBOZREVATEL wrote in detail about what the pension reform of the Cabinet of Ministers will look like and why the situation with the payment of pensions in Ukraine will get worse every year.
