SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT HAVING A SET RETIREMENT AGE ( EXAMPLE. 65 YEARS ) FOR EVERYBODY, REGARDLESS OF OCCUPATION IS UNFAIR.
As quoted by Mark Twain, “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.” Some people promote set retirement age for everybody, regardless of their profession, however some disagree. I strongly believe that varied professions shall have different retirement ages for its workers.
There are enormous professions that require a different mental state and hard work. Some demand the employee to be physically strong, others, need them to be mentally active and some require both. Professions such a Sports promote an early retirement as after an age of 30-35 years, the sports person starts to lose his fitness that is required for playing the game.
However, professions like doctors and lawyers foster a late retirement. In fact , these are the professions in which people earn more once they grow older because of higher experience in their respective fields. But these are the examples of published and honoured professions of a country. The people who are not privileged by the right of education, look for other means to earn a living and to not let their children sleep empty stomach. Scavengers, Miners and housekeepers need to work even when they are exhausted emotionally as well as physically just for the sake of food. Some preventive measures shall be taken up by the governments and households of the countries all around the world to aid pension to these workers and not let them harm their health at an old age by working extra hours.
To conclude, I would stand more firmly at my vision that certain workers deserve to retire and receive pension at an early age, especially those, that want the people to be more physically involved.
