国务院总理温家宝９日主持召开国务院常务会议，决定继续提高企业退休人员基本养老金水平。
会议决定，自２０１３年１月１日起，继续提高企业退休人员基本养老金水平，提高幅度按２０１２年企业退休人员月人均基本养老金的１０％确定。在普遍调整的基础上，对企业退休高工、高龄人员等群体适当再提高调整水平，对基本养老金偏低的企业退休军转干部按有关规定予以倾斜。
为保障企业退休人员生活，２００５年至２０１２年，国家已连续８年较大幅度调整企业退休人员基本养老金水平。２０１２年调整后企业退休人员月人均养老金达到１７２１元，与２００５年调整前月人均７００元的水平相比，８年累计月人均增加１０２１元。会议要求研究建立企业退休人员基本养老金正常调整机制，确保企业退休人员生活水平保持稳定并逐步提高。
会议批准了２０１２年享受政府特殊津贴人员名单。这次共有４８２４人享受政府特殊津贴。至此，从１９９０年政府特殊津贴制度建立以来，共有１６．６万多做出突出贡献的专业技术人员和高技能人员享受政府特殊津贴。
