Ukrainians by the level of wages is much less than other countries: from Belarus and Russia to Bulgaria and France, Italy and Poland. This was reported by the Director of the Institute of Demography NAS Ella Libanova.
“I always say that no other way but to increase wages for the development of Ukraine no. At the moment I have to admit that the increase in wages over the past three years was not accompanied by an adequate increase in productivity,” - she said .
“If today we look at the relationship between Ukraine and other countries on this indicator as GDP per capita, and the wage ratio, Ukraine is losing more in productivity. Really, we do not have such large reserves to increase the payment labor. Another question that can not talk about raising social transfers without adequate wage increase, “- said Libanova.
She also noticed that the pensioners, the overwhelming majority of very poor live, but the average ratio of the average pension and salary in Ukraine is 49%, it all turns out exclusively from shared systems, ie, contributions from employees.
“Believe me, such a percentage anywhere in the world there,” - she added.
According to her, in other countries, revenues come from the cumulative funds from the fact that the man himself lays his old age.
Recall, Ukraine is on the 68-th place on the quality of life among 194 countries in the world, ahead of most of its neighbors in the CIS.
Such data research group International Living (USA). Last year Ukraine dropped by 6 positions. True, they took up only a point less - fall, rather, due to changes in rates of other countries, wrote “Today”.
