Reform of the pension system of UkraineAccording to UNIAN, the main purpose of pension reform officials call the increase of justice in the current solidarity pension system. For this purpose it is proposed to introduce concepts such as basic and insurance pensions, as well as – pension points.
The amount of the pension will be calculated on the basis of these points, based on the ratio between the amount of insurance premiums paid for one month of insurance experience of a particular employee, and the amount of insurance premiums from the average wage in Ukraine for the same month. Accordingly, if the employee’s salary was higher than the country’s average, more points will be charged.
