The Cabinet of Ministers does not intend to revise the difference in retirement age for men and women in the near future. This was stated by First Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Policy Lidiya Drozdova, reports Delo. \n \nAccording to Drozdova, in Western Europe this issue was resolved long ago, people retire 5-7 years later than in Ukraine, and now there is talk of raising this bar even further. In the deputy minister's opinion, the retirement age for women in Ukraine needs to be raised. "However, as of today, this issue is not on the ministry's agenda," she said. \n \nRecall that in Ukraine the retirement age for men is 60 years, for women – 55. The average salary of a woman in Ukraine does not exceed 70% of the average salary of a man. After retiring, women have shorter employment records and lower salaries. Both of these indicators are taken into account when calculating pensions in Ukraine. \n \n
