Ministry of Labour: pensions and other social payments not to be decreased

The press secretary of the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection Halina Trafimenka has told ERB about it:
Halina Trafimenka: “No changes that may worsen the life of pensioners are planned and they cannot be planned. Nothing at all: neither social payment nor pensions – we will not change anything”.

Let us remind you that social payments include welfare, benefits for the handicapped, children’s payments, pensions and other things.

According to the press secretary, deductions for the social protection fund will not change either this year. Monthly dues to the fund are 1% of salaries and 29% of enterprises’ income.
