For this period, the life of men in the retirement age is 10 years, women - 21 years (average 16.4 years). This is due to the fact that the average life expectancy for men is calculated at 73 years, women - 81.
Actuaries estimate legislators confirm that after 8 years, employers will be more disciplined in the social charges - the rate for them will decrease from 22 to 15% as the contribution due to the salary of workers from 3 to 10%.
