The system of early retirement pensions was inherited from the USSR and every third Russian pensioner receives a preferential pension. It is assigned to metallurgists, oil workers, coal miners, ballerinas, trolleybus drivers, teachers - the lists of early retired pensioners are huge. The conduction of pension reform involved seeking resources within the system itself. To solve the problem of financing preferential pensions, a system of early non-state pension provision was created, implemented through non-state pension funds. However, the existing legislative regulation does not stimulate employers of hazardous and dangerous industries to create corporate pension programs due to the fact that they will not exempt employers from paying additional insurance premiums in favor of employees on preferential lists. As a result, there are no employers in the country who will not only pay wages on time, transfer insurance premiums in a timely manner, but for this category in an increased amount, but will also form additional contributions for the same employees under the early non-state pension system. The non-state pension paid in the frame of this system does not replace the early insurance old-age pension, that is, it does not entail a decrease in federal budget costs. The purpose of this study is to consider the main legal acts and the process of development of legislation on early non-state pension provision. The result of the study is practical proposals for improving the legal framework of the early retirement pension system.

Abstract This paper studies how the rates of deduction for early retirement have to be determined in pay-as-you-go (PAYG) systems in order to keep their budget stable. The derivation of these deductions requires the use of a multiperiod intertemporal budget constraint that involves assumptions about the retirement behavior of past, present, and future cohorts. In general, it is not possible to calculate budget-neutral deductions from the budget constraint of a single individual who retires before the target retirement age—an approach that dominates the related literature. Only for specific cases one can use this second approach but then one has to adjust the discount rate to the assumption about collective retirement. If there is only one deviating individual, then the right choice is the market interest rate while for a stationary retirement distribution it is the internal rate of return of the PAYG system. In this case, the necessary deductions are lower than under the standard approach. This is also true for retirement ages that fluctuate randomly around a stationary distribution. Various long-run developments (e.g., increases in life expectancy or permanent changes in the average retirement age) might cause challenges for the sustainability of the pension system. These developments, however, can only be dealt with by adequate adjustments to the basic pension formulas and not by the use of deduction rates.

Abstract A crucial parameter for increasing the retirement age is the early retirement discount of the public pension system. Critics of the present German system argue that the downward adjustment of the pension for early retirees is too small compared with a ‘fair’ system and thus encourages early retirement. We discuss several notions of ‘fairness’ of early-retirement provisions and propose a concept called ‘distributive neutrality’, which states that the ratio between total benefits and total contributions should not depend systematically on the individual’s ability. By applying this concept to the German retirement benefit formula and taking empirically estimated relationships between annual income (as a proxy for ability), life expectancy and retirement age into account, we show that at the present discount rate of 3.6% per year there is redistribution from low to high earners, which, surprisingly, could be attenuated by raising the discount rate.

Aims: Socio-economic disparities in health and access to care are well documented, but socio-economic disparities in surgical care and outcomes have received less attention. The aim of the study was to determine if there are socio-economic disparities in the risk of undergoing emergency laparotomy and postoperative mortality in a universal health-care system with free and equal access to care. Methods: This was a nationwide case-control study including patients undergoing non-malignant emergency laparotomy involving resection, ostomy or open drainage between 2003 and 2014 and population references matched 1:1 on age and sex. Socio-economic disparities in one-year postoperative mortality were explored through a cohort study including all patients. Exposure measures were register-based household disposable income, educational level and employment status. Analyses were adjusted by age, sex, country of origin, marital status and co-morbidity. Results: A total of 11,962 cases and 11,962 population references were included. The highest odds ratios (OR) for undergoing surgery were found among those with the lowest income (OR=1.51; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.39–1.63), those with elementary school education (OR=1.33; 95% CI 1.22–1.46) and those on early-retirement pension (OR=3.49; 95% CI 3.07–3.98). One-year postoperative mortality was highest among those with lowest income (hazard ratio (HR)=1.51; 95% CI 1.35–1.69), those with elementary school education (HR=1.39; 95% CI 1.22–1.59) and those on early-retirement pension (HR=2.12; 95% CI 1.73–2.61). Conclusions: Socio-economic disparities in health exist in relation to non-malignant emergency laparotomies and still exist after adjustment for confounders, including co-morbidity, indicating that mechanisms other than differences in disease burden are involved. There is a substantial need for exploration of mechanisms and preventive measures.
