Under the indexation of pensions it is customary to understand the process of increasing labor benefits solely on the basis of an appropriate decision of the Government of our country, mainly in order to increase the general living standard of pensioners.
According to experts in this field, recalculation of the insurance part of labor payments is possible in several cases: old age, disability, after the loss of the bread-winner, etc.
The indexation of pensions also takes into account the anticipated increase in prices for popular goods and services. The average cost of living for the past year is also taken into account.
In 2013, it is planned to index pensions three times, a total of 10%.
For example, in April, labor pensions were recalculated by an average of 3.3%, depending on the region of the country.
Moreover, in the same month, the size of EDV (monthly cash payments) by 5.5% was also indexed. In our country, as a rule, almost all former participants of the Great Patriotic War receive such payments.
It is safe to say that the Government of our country has not paid such close attention to the military for a long time as in 2013. The current political situation in the world, constant conflicts, as well as an unstable military climate forces the state to do everything possible in order to ensure the country's constant combat readiness. However, for Russia to be served exclusively by professionals in their field, they should ensure a decent future in advance. One aspect of this state of affairs is, among other things, pension.
For example, in the period from 2011 to 2012, thanks to a process such as the indexation of military pensions, the amount of monthly payments has increased significantly. In some regions, it is 16, 000 rubles. It is important to note that in Russia the indexation of pensions and the corresponding increase in wages in relation to the average annual inflation rate are held annually in several stages.
As you know, the size of a pension in Russia for the military is calculated as follows: half of the salary + salary by rank + district coefficient + all kinds of allowances for long service. Due to the fact that last year the Government significantly increased the salaries of the military, there was a problem of payments, since there is a shortage of funds.
So, now the pension of absolutely all the military will be paid taking into account inflation. For example, this year, inflation is expected to be no higher than 7%, therefore, payments will not be increased above this figure. However, some sources claim a possible increase of up to 30%. In fact, the figure of 3.7% is more real. Nevertheless, indexation of pensions will nevertheless gradually occur as a new system is established.
It should be noted that in the past 2012 the recalculation of cash payments was carried out three times. In February, the amount increased by 7%, and thanks to the April additional remittance increased by another 3.41%. Moreover, in April social pensions were also increased by approximately 14.1%. As a result of these changes, the average amount of benefits in the country amounted to 5, 938 rubles. In conclusion, we note that the total increase in labor pensions for 2012 amounted to 10.41%.
