Some people think that having a set 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 early retirement?
Doing a job in
this
competitive world requires a lot of effort, compromise and dedication. It eats away quite a huge chunk of one's life and soon one attains the age
of retirement
. Some people perceive having a set retirement
age
as unfair as some workers deserve an earlier retirement
. I completely agree with this
notion and would like to discuss it further
.
Firstly
, the retirement
age
should depend on the nature of the job a worker performs. Some professions are quite demanding both
physically and mentally. Due to this
old ,age
they tend to be very weak to perform their duties. For instance
, working at Oil rigs or construction sites as labour, both
jobs demand physical fitness which a young worker is only capable of doing easily. Retiring early from such
a profession is both
good for workers as well as creating job opportunities for other young workers.
Moreover
, some professionals groom with age
and experience. Retiring earlier from such
a profession will not benefit fully the individual or society. As an example, doctors improve with experience, patient exposure and history of dealt cases. The profession is not physically challenging so they can work till old age
.
In conclusion, I strongly agree retirement
should not be fixed at a particular age
as it will affect both
those who cannot continue till that age
or those who can even work past that age
