In Ukraine, during the pension reform, taxation of pensions for working pensioners will be abolished. This was during the presentation of the reform in the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine Prime Minister Vladimir Groisman, quoted today.

"As a forced measure, the taxation of pensions of working pensioners was adopted.

In this law, we suggest that it be canceled. A working pensioner after the adoption of this law can work and receive 100% of his wages and pensions, "Groisman said..

According to the Prime Minister, such a forced measure will not make sense when other methods can cope with the problem of the Pension Fund deficit.

Recall, the law on the introduction of a 15% pension tax for working pensioners was adopted on June 2 and came into force on July 1, 2016.
