Military retirees to receive raised pensions from January 1 – Groysman

Another stage of increase in pensions for 500,000 military retirees will begin on January 1, 2019.

Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman wrote this on Twitter.

"As promised, there will be another increase in pensions for 500,000 military retirees from 1 January 2019. Starting from March 1, we will carry out the largest recalculation of pensions for almost 12 million retired persons. For the first time it will be conducted automatically, not manually. The minimum wage will grow to UAH 4,173,” he wrote.

The Prime Minister also reminded that the monetization of subsidies will be conducted from January 1, 2019.

"If people save energy resources, all that remains on their accounts will be monetized and transferred to them as a result of their savings," said Groysman
