Social Security Administration to be fully digitized by end of 2025

The Czech Social Security Administration will become the country's first fully digitized sector enabling people to handle matters entirely online, Labor Minister Marian Jurečka told journalists at a press briefing in Prague. According to the minister, the agenda relating to employment should be fully digitized by January of next year, the registration of children's groups will be digitized by May and those seeking disability pensions and benefits will be able to do so fully online by next autumn. Jurečka said his ministry would fulfill all its set goals before the general elections next October. These include pushing through Parliament a proposed bill on pension reform, a review of benefits and introducing a more flexible labour code.
