It is believed that with an increase in the subsistence minimum, the size of the minimum pension will necessarily increase. However, this has not happened since December 1, 2022, an independent pension expert noted. Sergei Korobkin.
He stressed that in Ukraine now there are several types of minimum pensions, and from March 1, the minimum wage cannot be less than 2,100 hryvnia.
“That is, a person who receives UAH 2,100 today will not feel any increase since December. The same applies to people with a pension of UAH 2,300 or, for example, UAH 3,000, which people with sufficient experience and age 70+ have been receiving since October.” - explained the expert.
Recall that earlier the Pension Fund published statistics, according to which 50% of pensioners receive pensions up to 4 thousand hryvnias, and 38.5% receive payments up to 3 thousand hryvnias.
