LO wants gas in the pension system – Västerbotten Courier

If there is a brake, there should be a gas. LO suggests that pensions are raised when there is excess in the system, just like the brake is applied when it becomes deficit.

LO believes that pension shall be at least 70 percent of their salary. Today contribute to the pension scheme are only about 60 percent of their final salary in retirement, according to LO’s pension investigation.

Another requirement is that the right to sick leave shall be extended to 67 years. Otherwise, it is forced to go on sick leave to take the pension early.

The union also wants to abolish the premium pension, the part where the individual self-invest their pension money.
