Unified pension increase? Farmers will increase by 400 at the age of 60 and 500 at the age of 65? Is it true?/You don't say. /You don't say.

In February, 2023, preparations for the two sessions began in various parts of China, and the pension adjustment policy that many retirees are very concerned about is expected to be released after the two sessions in March this year. However, compared with the adjustment of pension, whether it goes up or not, it can't cover up the pension income gap that many people are concerned about. On June 5438+ 10, 2023, the local pension in a certain place in Jiangxi province was distributed, which can be said to have stung the hearts of many low-income retirees. It can be said that the total amount of pensions received by retirees from institutions and institutions with a relatively small number is much higher than that of other elderly people, which is obvious.

Is pension adjustment linked to age?

Some social security experts feel very unreasonable about the proposal of retired people. They pointed out that how to adjust pensions across the board according to the age of retired old people? Regardless of the actual situation, divorced from market rules. In China, the amount of pension has nothing to do with the age of retired people, mainly according to the three rules of "quota adjustment, tilt adjustment and hook adjustment". In short, the state will formulate a general adjustment outline according to the overall situation of retired people in various regions, and then each region will formulate a suitable plan according to its own situation, and at the same time, it will also take into account the social security payment of retired people. Experts believe that:

First of all, the proposer of this scheme does not know the old-age insurance system in China.

China's old-age insurance system is first of all a kind of social insurance, which itself needs to absorb funds before it can be issued. Why do you have to pay more for old-age insurance? It is to attract workers to actively pay social security and ensure that there are enough pension funds for retirees. If the age is adjusted across the board in the future, it will really drive backwards, which is very unfavorable to the health of the pension system.

The second is that it is scientific to adjust the pension in proportion.

It is really inappropriate to raise the quota for retired people according to their age. China has a vast territory, and the economic development in different regions is different, so is the purchasing power of money. Maybe 400 yuan is a lot of money in some remote areas with underdeveloped economy, but its purchasing power is limited in many big cities with developed economy. Therefore, the general pension increase is generally adjusted according to a certain proportion, and there is no direct increase in a fixed amount.

Legal basis:

Article 18 of the Social Insurance Law stipulates that the state establishes a normal adjustment mechanism for basic pensions. According to the average wage increase and price increase of employees, the basic old-age insurance treatment level will be improved in a timely manner. Basis for Pension Adjustment for Urban and Rural Residents In February of 20 14, the State Council issued the Opinions on Establishing a Unified Basic Old-age Insurance System for Urban and Rural Residents (Guo Fa [2065438+04] No.8), and adjusted the basic pension standards in a timely manner according to the adjustment of social security standards such as income growth of urban and rural residents, price changes and basic old-age insurance for employees.
