Retirement Benefits: The Czech Republic’s retirement benefits system currently consists of two pension pillars – Pillar I and Pillar III, of which Pillar III comprises the voluntarily defined contribution pension plan. The government is planning to introduce pillar II in the Czech Republic’s pension pillar system. A Commission for Fair Pensions which was appointed by the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs aimed to work on introducing Pillar II within the pension system. The new plans shall aim to narrow down the gender pension gap, develop a widower pension while refining widow’s pension, and consider the prospect of early retirement for hardship occupations and retirement income targets. Employers do not legally have to contribute; however, they may voluntarily fund the pension system. The state makes a matching employee contribution, which varies based on the employees’ level of contribution.
