Many scientists say that we already live in
old society and this will be more severe and cause some problems at work. Some
people think that the appropriate standard of retirement age should be
increased. In my opinion, the age of retirement should be definitely higher for
the future because people’s thoughts and health keep changing along with the
developing society.
To begin with, old people nowadays are
healthy enough to work. As medical industry today has highly developed, people’s
life spans are extended, and are also predicted that they can live up to 100
years in the near future. Unlike the past, there are a number of healthy people
who are over sixty these days. Therefore, they are sufficiently able to work
even after a few decades. In this sense, the age of retirement would be better
to be inclined in the old society.
On top of that, people’s awareness became
different today. Many people living in this society that people are getting
older change to think about the definition of one’s later year from taking
rests in a peaceful way to working longer actively. For example, some old labours
who worked for their almost entire lives are rather depressed after retirement
and some of them restart to work in other workplaces. Consequently, according
to old workers’ opinion in terms of retirement, countries should give a chance
for them to work longer.
To sum up, since people can have longer
life expectancy, the criteria of the age about retirement should be raised significantly.
Because they are highly likely to work in a healthy way and there are more
people who are willing to work longer even though they are quite old. |
