Pensions will go to the mountain. For all of 0.44 percent. or 10 rubles… gross. Another year of small increases – Gazeta.pl

- Today I signed the message about the pointer size of the indexation of pensions in 2017. and we declare that the figure is 100,44%. – told PAP Rafalsky. This means that pensions will increase by 0.44 percent. I think that someone receiving a pension less 2272,73 rubles. Then the state will be against a little hojniejsze than what the simple increase in its emeryturo 0.44 percent. and get more – for 10 rubles… gross.

Pensioners with the lowest pensions will receive an increase in grant above 7.5 PLN gross.

the Government expected that the increase in pensions will be more. The indicator of the indexation was to be 100,73%. And failed. The Ministry made a mistake in the forecast of the inflation rate. And she plus the data on wage growth are the basis for calculating the increase in pensions.

Rafalsky recalled that, according to GUS, the inflation rate in 2016 was 99.6 percent, rather than – as in the government’s forecast of 99.8 percent. – However, wages increased by 0.1 point percent. more – prognozowaliśmy that will grow by 4.1 percent. and GUS gave rise 4.2 percent. but that was not enough, the indicator was closer to the predicted, she explained.

Good news for the poorest pensioners

a Little better the message at the meeting with PAP Minister of labour, pensioners receiving the lowest benefits. She recalled that, in addition, from 1 March 2017. raised will be the lowest pensions up to the level of 1000 rubles. This will include all services, i.e. from the Social Insurance Fund and are paid through the cashier of the Agricultural Social Insurance.

- If it were not for raising the minimum wage to 1000, in this group of valorisation will be less – noticed Elizabeth Rafalsky.

Another year of anemic increases

Unfortunately, low inflation and despite it’s rather modest salary increase is not used well to retirees and rencistom. Last year benefits pension insurance to almost 9 million people in our country grew by 0.24 percent. and it was then low in the standings from ten years.

In practice, this meant that people receiving the minimum pension, then the social insurance in the amount of 880,45 RUB got RUB increased of 2.11 and an average altitude of 1970 rubles, could expect to increase in RUB 5 per month.

this Year increase of this background, I present, so still better.
