Why is the pension “northern”



Residents of the Far North (FN) regions and territories equivalent to it have the right to special increased pensions — the so-called northern allowance applies to them. Why is a well-deserved rest paid higher in these regions?

The northern climate has a noticeable effect on life expectancy, and not in a positive way. In an unfavorable climate, health and general physical condition can deteriorate faster. Therefore, the law provides for earlier retirement.

A harsh climate requires greater living expenses. For example, people have to buy more warm clothes and shoes, spend more fuel on cars, and so on. Food is also expensive - fruits and vegetables do not grow well in the north, they are brought from other regions.

In the regions of the KS, one can often encounter the problem of the outflow of qualified specialists. People prefer to leave for regions with more favorable living conditions.

Northern allowances and increased pensions should compensate for all this.
