Posted: Mon Jun 20, 2016 3:14 am
Some people think that having to 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?
Recently, there are hot debates on whether there is need for revisiting on the superannuation age. Definitely, there are many grievance raised for the current retirement age set in blanket. It has been observed that there is need for certain category of workers, especially the armed forces such as armies, navies and air force, to become pensioner at an earlier age. With such opportunity, they will stay fit and also be able to regain the lost opportunities, which I will discuss these areas in my essay.
Firstly, in the context of armed force personals, their life has been harsh from the day one they join the services. Not to mention about the risk of losing life, they have been dragged from one place to another. So, it is critical for them to be physically fit for such tasks though there are need for complementing with the skills and knowledge. Thus, it has become challenging when they becomes older, unlike any other professions. Therefore, there is need for them to take break from the services and continue their remaining life more peacefully like everyone enjoys.
Secondly, it is also an opportunity for them to experience the life that they have not been able to enjoy because of their nature of duties. Upon their early retirement, they could go around the world while they are still having the quest for fun. Thus, it is required to repay for their lost opportunities.
In conclusion, it is absolutely unfair to set the retirement age, regardless of the occupations. Therefore, there is need to have provision for certain category of workers like that of armed forces, to take earlier retirement and enjoy the remaining life.
