No pension reform for three years? Traffic light plans for retirement contradictory and “destructive”. 127.3 billion euros are planned for pensions as early as 2024.
Labor Minister Hubertus Heil wants to set the pension level at at least 48 percent by the end of the 2030s. Heil does not want to change the standard age limit of 67 years. The German Economic Institute (IW) in Cologne expects that the plans in their current form will inevitably lead to higher contributions.
