The bill on the improvement of the pension system was adopted by the State Duma deputies in the first reading as early as July 19. Over the past week only the lazy did not speak on this issue. More often in this chorus male voices were heard, but there are also active women politicians who support the coming changes.
For example, the chairman of the public council of the Ministry of Social Policy of the Sverdlovsk region Marina Cherkasova believes that it would be fair to make indulgence for those who raised the state "workers": ".
"I would reduce the retirement age for those women who raised two or more children - for example, for each child for one year. He raised two children - a year earlier you retire, three - for two. But it was brought up to 18 years: brought to mind, raised children who became employees. It would be reasonable, "Marina Cherkasova suggests. Besides, Marina Georgievna notes that when improving the pension system, legislators have logically and carefully approached different categories of citizens, including preferential. She recalls that an increase in the retirement age will not affect those people who have the right to early retirement benefits - for example, workers in the Far North, citizens receiving insurance pensions for social reasons, people affected by the Chernobyl accident and others.
"Benefits are preserved for representatives of socially important professions. These are pedagogical, medical workers. They have the possibility of early retirement pensions, it remains in full - the changes did not affect the development of special-purpose work. And those people who could not work out any experience at all - how to receive a social pension, and will receive it. Only now it will be appointed not in 60 years for women and 65 for men, but at 68 and 70 years respectively. And this, in my opinion, is fair, "- says Marina Cherkasova.
The chairman of the public council of the regional Ministry of Social Policy also notes that respect for work and care for one's future, as well as responsibility, must be brought up in people from childhood, and changes in the pension system contribute to this.
