Abstract: The economic crisis that has spread during the last few years, the rising unemployment rate and the increased share of elderly persons to the total population have led to the expansion of social protection expenditure in Europe. Although the role of states is vital when it comes to ensuring social justice and help citizens through troubled times, the social protection systems are facing tremendous pressure due to the overall increasing expenditure at a higher rate compared to that of the economic growth.
