The pension adjustment for 2023 will increase the pension by three times for corporate retirees. Is it appropriate?

Since 2016, retirees from government agencies, public institutions, and enterprise units have participated in the increase in pensions. However, because the former have relatively long service years and relatively high pension levels, they will have certain advantages in pension increases. For example, in Sichuan, the per capita pension for enterprise retirees in 2021 is 2,364 yuan, while the per capita pension for employees in government agencies and institutions is 6,256 yuan, a difference of nearly three times. Obviously, under the same conditions, retirees in government agencies and institutions can get a higher salary, and the gap will further widen. Now as 2023 is approaching, some places have made it clear that pensions will continue to be adjusted. Combined with various positive signals, pensions will most likely continue to rise. In response, some netizens said that in the 2023 pension adjustment, can corporate retirees uniformly increase the amount? The increase amount is three times more than that of retirees from government agencies and institutions, so as to reduce the increase, control the increase, and narrow the gap.

So, is this approach appropriate? If corporate retirees increase by three times, assuming that the per capita pension increase is 120 yuan, then corporate retirees can increase by 360 yuan per capita. This will indeed improve the pension level of corporate retirees, and will also help narrow the gap and improve the happiness of corporate retirees.

However, this approach is not very operable, will also breed many problems, bring chaos to the existing order and system, and is not conducive to healthy operation. There are mainly problems in the following aspects, let’s take a look:

1. Pension levels vary widely. Even for corporate retirees, some people’s pensions can reach five to six thousand yuan, while others only have about 1,000 yuan. If corporate retirees uniformly increase their pensions by three times, it will also lead to some people’s pensions being able to increase even more, which will also cause unfairness. Moreover, the pension levels of retirees in some government agencies and public institutions may not be very high. It is obviously unreasonable to limit the increase in pensions because of their retirement status as employees of government agencies and public institutions. In addition, if pensions need to be increased more because the pension level is low, then for flexible employment retirees or those receiving pension benefits for urban and rural residents, is there more reason to demand more pension increases?

2. In the context of the aging of the population and the greater pressure on social security funds , this approach is also inappropriate. Although the accumulated balance of the social security fund is still relatively large, with the aging of the population and the arrival of the retirement wave, the payment pressure is also increasing. At this time, we should encourage everyone to actively participate in insurance and guide everyone to pay according to higher standards through incentives. If the corporate retirees are now uniformly increased by three times regardless of individual payment status, it will obviously affect the enthusiasm of some people to participate in insurance, and will also make corporate personnel dependent, which is not conducive to the stable operation of the social security fund .

3. For retirees from government agencies and institutions and retirees from enterprises, the pensions are paid out by the government agencies and institutions pension insurance fund and the enterprise employee pension insurance fund respectively. The increase in pensions for retirees from government agencies and institutions is large and will not harm the interests of retirees from enterprises and institutions. The amount of the increase for both parties is closely related to the individual's insurance status.

4. If the pensions of enterprise retirees are increased by three times, this amount of money will require additional expenditures, which will undoubtedly increase the burden on the enterprise's employee pension insurance funds. We must know that there is already an imbalance of income and expenditure in some places, and it is obviously unrealistic to increase pensions more.

In summary,

there is a high probability that pensions will see a new increase in 2023, which is the 19th consecutive year of increases. At that time, retirees from government institutions and corporate retirees will participate in the adjustment together. alone will give corporate retirees a three-fold increase in pensions, which will bring about a series of problems and is inappropriate.
