OREANDA-NEWS The average pension of men turned out to be higher than that of women, the difference was almost 150 rubles. This is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the data of the Social Fund of Russia.
The indicator for men has reached 25,353 rubles per month since the beginning of the year, while for women it is 25,204 rubles. Thus, the average pension of the representatives of the stronger sex turned out to be 149 rubles higher than that of Russians.
In general, the average amount of such payments in Russia reached almost 25.4 thousand rubles by the end of April. At the same time, the figure among unemployed senior citizens turned out to be higher than that of employed people, and amounted to 25.8 thousand.
Despite the small increase, the pensions of a significant part of Russians remain at a fairly low level, experts agree. Against this background, it is more profitable for older citizens to continue working even after reaching retirement age, noted Lyudmila Ivanova-Shvets, Associate Professor of the Basic Department of Human Resources Management at the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation.
High inflation and rising utility bills actually negate the increase in social benefits. In the current realities, it is extremely difficult for Russians to ensure a decent standard of living in old age, the analysts concluded.
