Modern challenges to the system of compulsory social insurance

Abstract

The proposed review provides a general description and selective analysis of the materials of the section This article presents the main results of the study of ongoing changes in the field of social security, problems and imperfections of legislation and law enforcement. Global economic crises, pandemics, armed conflicts and clashes, political instability have a very tangible impact on ordinary citizens from the economically active population to pensioners. The differentiation in the incomes of high- and low-paid citizens is growing, the incomes of the population are decreasing in general, and the level of poverty in the country is growing. Under such conditions, the role of social security increases, which is designed, among other things, to smooth out social tensions and minimize inequality among socio-demographic groups of the population. Based on the analysis of legal provisions that enshrine the basic rights and freedoms of citizens to decent social security, conclusions are drawn, considering the need to prepare responses to the main challenges in a changing world.
