Then, annually, there will be an automatic indexation of pensions, taking into account the growth of average wages and inflation indicators. On Friday, the council supported the Cabinet's proposals and this week the government bill will be forwarded to the Verkhovna Rada.

About this on his page in Facebook wrote the Prime Minister Vladimir Groisman. He also noted that the deputies hope that they will support the increase of pensions to Ukrainians from October 1, 2017 and their annual indexation.

In comments and personal messages, I am often asked:

how will pensions rise and change in the mechanism for calculating them? Please look at some specific examples of how the new formula will be charged higher pensions - wrote Groysman.

Recall, as reported URA-Inform, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine on Monday, June 12, presented a new formula for calculating pensions. This was told by the Minister of Social Policy Andrei Reva. However, he recalled that until recently, pensions were assigned to 15 different laws and therefore there were various calculations of pensions.
