translation: ensuring gender equality in occupational pension schemes in order to adjust the Gender Equality Recast Directive to Court of Justice case law: the Directive allows different treatment of women and men in relation to occupational pensions due to their different statistical life expectancy, which leads to women receiving a lower monthly pension because on average they live longer (therefore contributing to the gender pension gap); such practice was found discriminatory and prohibited by the Court of Justice for state pensions in 2014 and for private pensions (insurance contracts) in 2011.
