abstract: 'The pension system in Romania has undergone successive reforms,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parametric and structural, determined by a complex of factors such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the demographic aging, the significant external migration, the changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the employment structure, the globalization and the growing of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
international competition. However, the changes brought to the system
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
have not been accompanied by gender impact studies. The current pension
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
system, build in accordance with the World Bank model, put more emphasis
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the contribution principle, the items of redistribution being very
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
few. This particularly affects women, since women often have lower
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation in the labour market, more frequent career breaks, being
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
overrepresented in low-paid occupations and having a higher share
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between people with atypical employment contracts, and thus likely to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
accumulate lower retirement rights than men. Our study performs a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
careful analysis of the Romanian pension system in terms of complying
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with the principles of gender equality. The methodology includes the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
examination of the legislative framework, as well as the assessment of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the pension adequacy for men and women based on a microeconomic model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our approach takes into account the calculation and comparison of gross
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and net theoretical replacement rates for men and women with different
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
career and income profiles, using certain assumptions about the economic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and demographic variables. Our study confirms the existence of gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality in the pension system today. The system design is largely
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
responsible for the replication of gender inequalities that exist in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labour market. The awareness of these issues is an important step in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fostering policy makers to take measures towards promoting the gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
equality in the pension field.'
