What level is a monthly pension of more than 6,000 yuan? How many elderly people

With the development of the economy and society and the continuous improvement of people's income, people are also paying more and more attention to the level of pension. A friend asked: What level is it if the monthly pension exceeds 6000 yuan after retirement? Let's take a look at the figures published by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.

Per capita pension level.

In 2023, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security published an article titled "Weaving a Dense Social Security Safety Net", which mentioned that the per capita pension level of enterprise retirees in 2022 reached 2,987 yuan.

In June 2024, the data released by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security showed that the average basic pension for enterprise retirees nationwide in 2023 doubled compared to 2012.

According to the "Annual Report on the Development of Social Security in China 2016", the per capita pension of enterprise retirees in 2012 was 1,686 yuan. It is estimated that the pension level of enterprise retirees in 2023 is above 3,300 yuan.

In addition to the average figures published above, we can also estimate the pension level of enterprise retirees by the expenditure of the social security fund and the number of retired personnel.

According to the data published by the Ministry of Finance, the total amount of basic pensions for enterprise employees in 2022 was 4,143.622 billion yuan. The number of retired personnel at the end of 2022 was 115.309 million, and the average number with 111.265 million at the end of 2021 is 113.287 million. The per capita basic pension per month obtained by dividing the total amount of basic pensions by the average number of recipients is 3,048 yuan.It can be said that a monthly pension of 6,000 yuan is approximately twice the average pension of enterprise retirees. Based on such data estimation, about 90% of people may not reach a pension level of 6,000 yuan.

What is the average pension level for retirees from government and public institutions? In 2022, the total pension expenditure for government and public institutions was 1,502.77 billion yuan, and the average number of retirees from the end of 2021 to the end of 2022 was about 20.72 million people. This calculates to a monthly average pension of 6,045 yuan.

How many elderly people can a monthly pension of 6,000 yuan surpass?

By the end of 2022, the number of retirees reached 136.44 million, an increase of 4.87 million from the previous year. Under these circumstances, it is estimated that the number of retirees will exceed 140 million people by now, although most of them are enterprise retirees.

According to the past distribution ratios, enterprise retirees account for about 85%, and about 90% of them have a monthly pension below 6,000 yuan. Among retirees from government and public institutions, about 50% have a monthly pension below 6,000 yuan.

Combining the above figures, the number of people with a monthly pension below 6,000 yuan is approximately 117.6 million, accounting for about 84% of all retirees.

In fact, retirees are only a part of the elderly population in our country. According to the 2022 Human Resources and Social Security Development Statistical Bulletin, by the end of 2022, the number of people receiving benefits from the urban and rural resident pension insurance was 164.64 million (these are basically elderly people over 60, while there are still many retirees under 60 in the employee pension insurance). The pension fund expenditure in 2022 was 404.4 billion yuan, with a monthly average benefit of about 200 yuan. There are certainly no people with a monthly pension exceeding 6,000 yuan among them.

Considering the total number of elderly people, that is to say, having a monthly pension exceeding 6,000 yuan, one can at least surpass 92.6% of the elderly, which definitely belongs to the top of pension income. To be honest, a monthly income exceeding 6,000 yuan would also surpass the majority of working people. #Top Headline Creation Challenge#
