In Russia, men and women retire at different ages. Some say that this is not fair, since the life expectancy of the stronger sex is less than the life expectancy of women. By law, the retirement age for men in Russia is sixty years, and for women is fifty-five.
Insurance pension
Until 2015, the concept of the insurance part of the pension included in the labor pension was provided. After the reforms, everything changed, and the pension now consists of insurance and funded, and the concept of labor has been eliminated.
By law, an insurance pension can be of several types: old age, disability and loss of a nurse. In order to prescribe the old-age allowance, it is necessary that the retirement age for men in Russia be reached. It is also necessary that the length of service corresponds to the minimum established. According to the new law, for the calculation of insurance benefits it is necessary to have a set point value.
Total retirement age
The retirement age of men in Russia is 60 years. However, there are specialties when working in which a man can leave for a well-deserved rest earlier or, conversely, later than the established average term.
Retirement of the Northerners
The “northern” retirement age for men in Russia is less than average. All citizens working in the Far North and in areas equivalent to the COP can go on vacation at 55, but only on the condition that they have worked there for at least fifteen years (calendar) or twenty years in areas equivalent to the COP.
Age of future senior citizens
The retirement age for men in Russia employed in the state civil service will be 65 years. According to the government’s plan, this indicator should be reached by 2026. In 2017, the retirement age of civil servants is sixty years and six months. Every year, this figure will grow for six months. In 2018, men should be 61 years old, and in 2019 - 61 and a half. Thus, the state plans to increase the release period to 65 for men.
Retirement age of military personnel
Many are interested in the question of how old a retirement age is in Russia. The new pension reform has made serious changes to the age group of the military, who are sent to retirement. Under the new law, retirement time depends on rank and length of service.
Colonel-Generals and Admirals have the right to resign from 60 to 65. Major Generals and Rear Admirals can go on vacation five years earlier. For colonels and captains, the retirement age is now 50 and 55 years. The rest of the military may resign from 45 to 50.
On an individual basis, the retirement age of some military personnel may be increased. For admirals and colonel-generals, the period of service can be extended to 70 years, and for the remaining ranks of the military, up to 65 years.
Due to the increase in the retirement age, many citizens were able to earn good retirement benefits. Under the new law, citizens have the right not to retire, but to remain at work as long as they see fit. At the same time, future benefits will be recalculated by three percent.
