Hungarian Government To Prepare Work Program For Women Facing Pension
After 40 years of employment, women in Hungary can retire, but some above the age of 55 and unemployed are unable to reach this limit. The government is setting up a program for them.

According to the Ministry for National Economy publication, the program is primarily for those who are currently unemployed and have less than a year to go before retirement.

The law that says 40 years of working is enough for women to retire has been on the books since 1 January 2001.
State Secretary for Employment Sándor Czomba will give more details on the program later this week.
