武漢 - 截至６月底，中國共有企業退休人員３３６５．３萬人，已實行社會化管理服務的有１７５１．６萬人，社會化管理率達到５２％，比去年底提高８．５個百分點。

勞動和社會保障部副部長劉永富３０日在武漢召開的全國社會保險局長會議上說，各地要加快街道社區勞動保障工作平臺建設，確保今年底８０％的企業退休人員實現管理服務社會化，更好地保障廣大企業退休人員晚年生活的安定。

企業退休人員管理服務社會化是指職工辦理退休手續後，其管理服務工作與原單位分離，養老金實行社會化發放，人員移交城市街道和社區實行屬地管理，由社區服務組織提供相應的管理服務。

專家指出，這是中國建立獨立於企業之外的社會保障體系的重要內容，是保証企業退休人員晚年幸福安定生活、提高生活質量的重要措施，也是今年推進社會保障體系建設的一個突破點。
