Ukraine is faced with a demographic problem: the ratio of workers to pensioners is 1:1, which makes it difficult to pay pensions to future generations.
To receive a pension, people aged 65 will need to have 15 years of insurance experience. Changing the retirement age is a complex issue with many aspects, so it is important that the government takes into account all the nuances of this issue when taking measures.
The government is taking a number of measures to address this problem:
- Increasing the retirement age:
- From 2025, 32 years of insurance experience will be required to retire at age 60.
- This requirement will increase by 1 year each year, reaching 35 years in 2028.
- To retire at age 63, you will need 22-35 years of insurance experience (depending on the year).
- Stimulating the return of Ukrainians from abroad:
- The government is planning measures to stimulate the return of Ukrainians who have gone abroad to work.
- This will help increase the country's labor potential and reduce the burden on the pension system.
-
Preservation of the health of the working population:
- It is important to take measures to prevent diseases and preserve the health of the working population.
- This will allow people to work longer and postpone retirement.
