Worker often have to retire at the age of 60 or 65. However, some people say that they should be allowed to continue working for as long as they want. What is your opinion about this?

In many countries, employees working in the public or private sector must retire at the

age

of 60 to 65 due to the policies of government

although

they are still able to

work

for longer. In my opinion, I think the retirement

age

should be extended or they should be allowed to

work

as long as they can because workers feel more pleasure when they

work

and the

life

expectancy is increasing nowadays.

First

of all, with the development of humans, our

life

expectancy has increased significantly in the

last

few decades.

Moreover

, the health of people

also

improves which allows them the ability to do their jobs even when they are already the

age

of retirement.

For example

, my mother is an accountant at a printing company. After retiring at

age

of 60 she found that she can still do the job accounting well, so she applied to

work

for a local company as an out-sourcing accountant.

Furthermore

, people only feel happy when they have a job to do. It is true that at any

age

in a good physical and mental situation people always feel bored when they are free, only pursuing a target would make them find the happiness.

For instance

, the

work

of the scientist is doing the research for final results. Many of them keep pursuing their passion all their

life

because only

this

makes them happy and meaningful. In conclusion, the current retirement

age

seems too young. Government should consider adjusting it or have policies to extend the working period of workers longer as the ability of workers still can affordable due to the improvement of

life

expectancy and it makes the

life

happier and more meaningful.
