The supervisory board of the National Social Security Institute (NOI) unanimously approved the draft 2027 state social security budget, social minister Natalia Efremova told reporters after the meeting.
The minister said all pensions due to rise will go up from mid-2027.
The previous development: Pensions to rise by 7-8% from mid-2027, Efremova expects
From next year, the draft sets a higher pension ceiling, higher minimum and maximum unemployment benefits, and higher maternity benefits for the second year.
Efremova said employers' groups, trade unions and the state's representatives all back the draft. She said those involved described it as well balanced, with good figures for next year.
Employers criticise the rise in the maximum and minimum social security thresholds. The minister said the hopes of all sides can never be met in full.
