Poverty of seniors in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The transition from the economically active to the economically inactive (retirement) life phase represents a time of substantial change for seniors involving inter alia a reduction in income and financial dependence on the social (pension) system. Consequently, this group is potentially at risk of poverty. Moreover, it is essential that a solution be found to this problem, especially with respect to the fact that the proportion of persons aged 65+ in the Czech Republic is predicted to increase steadily to around 32,2 % by 2050. The main source of data for the analysis of the poverty of seniors in this paper consisted of the EU-SILC international survey, according to which the Czech Republic exhibits particularly good results with respect to all the internationally monitored indicators, for example the AROP (60) rate for the households of seniors in the Czech Republic stands at just 5,9 % as compared to the EU28 average of 15,9 %. However, the article aims to highlight the poverty of seniors from the multidimensional perspectives.
