lpv:translated text	"Demographic ageing constitutes a challenge for society and for all generations in the European Union. In this context, Europe has the highest proportion of older women in the world. Older women face discrimination in the labour market based on sex and age, combined with their greater vulnerability caused by slower, shorter and/or interrupted career paths. These factors reflect a higher gender pay gap and create a gender differential in contributions to personal pension accounts, thus increasing women’s risk of poverty in old age. I therefore voted for the report on the situation of women approaching retirement age, which calls on the European Commission and the Member States to take effective measures to combat this discrimination, and to achieve respect for the principle of equality between men and women in policies relating to pension reform and pay equality."@en1
