Band 7

Some people think that having a set a retirement age (e.g. 65 years ) for everybody, regardless of occupation, is unfair. They believe that certain workers deserve to retire and receive a pension at an earlier age. Do you agree or disagree? Which types of workers do you think should benefit from earlier retirement?

Many believe that having a fixed
age
 for everyone, regardless of their occupation is unjust. They think that certain workers should be permitted to retire and to receive pension at an earlier
age
. I agree to
such
 a measure. Setting the retirement at 65 deems unfair for many reasons. Not all professions are equal. While some require intellectual abilities, others require physical strength.
For instance
, some fields of work depend solely on management;
however
, there are other sorts of heavy-duty work. You can't treat someone who exerts physical effort for a living like another who just uses their brain; it would be unfair. Not to mention that there are certain professions that affect one's health. Take Mining
for example
; most miners end up with lung diseases. Now, if miners were to work until 65 just to receive a pension, think of the damage that they would incur along the process. While others working in a perfectly safe environment don't suffer, there are others who take a great risk just to provide a living.
Therefore
, the need for an earlier retirement
age
 for specific workers arise. If
such
 a measure were taken, many heavy-duty employees would benefit from it. As it would give them a chance for a better health. Evacuating at a relatively younger
age
 would enable them to leave the toxic environment where they function and seek medical attention. Many are expected to make use of early evacuation: cleaners, factory workers, miners, Etc. Which is why it is important to implement
such
 a decision. In the end, we need to distinguish between equity and equality. It’s good to have equality, but sometimes in doing so we end up harming a party. Generalizing retirement
age
 without the slightest consideration of everyone’s occupation is unfair and
thus
 every profession should have their own evacuation
age
.
