Dchodové

Důchodové (often written as dchodové in ASCII texts) is a Czech adjective relating to retirement or pension. It is used to describe concepts, policies, and benefits tied to old age. In Czech, it appears in compound terms such as důchodové dávky (retirement benefits), důchodové pojištění (pension insurance), and důchodové systémy (retirement systems).

In the Czech Republic, the public pension system provides income for retirees and other eligible groups. It includes multiple types of důchodové dávky, notably starobní důchod (old-age pension), invalidní důchod (disability pension), and vdovský důchod (widow’s pension). The system is funded through mandatory důchodové pojištění contributions by employees and employers and is administered by the Czech Social Security Administration (Česká správa sociálního zabezpečení, ČSSZ) under the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs.

Outside policy, důchodové concepts appear in discussions of pension reform, social welfare, and demographic aging. The term also appears in legal and regulatory language, where it labels programs, payments, and brackets connected with retirement income.
