Both were dissatisfied with the delayed pension adjustment. The inflation from August 2022 to July 2023 will be settled at the beginning of 2024, Kostelka complained. In the middle of the previous year, inflation rates had started to climb above ten percent. The retirees would have financed a loss of purchasing power out of their own pockets.
In addition to a pension adjustment of around ten percent, he called for measures aimed at this “interim financing”. In addition, they wanted the pension adjustment to be brought forward.
The Senior Citizens’ Council also wants the annual pension adjustment to be calculated more quickly: the ideal would be January to December of the previous year.
Working in retirement must also be made more attractive in view of the shortage of skilled workers. Korosec and Kostelka called on the government to start negotiations on its own tax deduction or the abolition of pension contributions for pensioners.
