The UK government’s decision not to compensate Waspi women has led to significant public outcry, highlighting the government’s failure to properly communicate pension age changes.
The parliamentary ombudsman concluded that the Department for Work and Pensions exhibited maladministration, indicating a systemic failure to inform millions of women about crucial pension changes.
Waspi women argue that they were misled and unprepared for the increased state pension age, which financially disadvantaged them in their later years of life.
The increased state pension age for women, initially set at 60, was actually raised to 65, leading to a drastic shift in retirement planning.
