Since July, the cost of living in Ukraine has increased to 2,600 hryvnias, which is 2.6 times lower than the real one.

The real subsistence minimum in Ukraine is more than 2.5 times higher than the actual one. This was said by the Minister of Social Policy Oksana Zholnovich in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine, published on Thursday, August 4.

“According to our estimates, about 2.6 times more than what was given, that is, about UAH 6.5 thousand. But in this matter, the household should be taken into account. If it is a person, then he needs somewhere these 6 thousand to pay rent , rent, utilities. If there are two or three people, then with each subsequent amount decreases. It should be understood that this minimum cannot be obtained linearly for each person, it is necessary to consider the households. But it is clear that the approved is lower than the real one,” he said.

According to him, the planned wage increase will take place in December, despite the war. There are no forecasts for next year at the Ministry of Social Policy. Just like there is no plan to raise the living wage in real terms.

Zhelnovich believes that in the future it will be necessary to change the subsistence minimum system, separate it from a number of non-standard payments.

“We definitely need to separate the existing level of subsistence from what is imposed on it, for example, fines, payments for various licenses, pensions for judges and some special bodies. The all this greatly affects the budget balance … Therefore, there are bills registered in the Verkhovna Rada that provide for that the living wage should be related to social guarantees, only payments and benefits, and not should be an amount that affects any other costs,” said the minister.

Recall that since July 1, the cost of living has increased from UAH 2,481 to UAH 2,600, and in December it should increase to UAH 2,684.
