Let us recall that the current retirement age for women is 60, and for men – 65. The government wants to extend it by several years.
Higher retirement age. There will be training for retirees
Before actually raising the retirement age, the government wants to motivate retirees to stay on the labor market. How will he do it? By organizing training for people 50+. In this way, retirees will be able to gain new skills and knowledge that will allow them to continue working or find a completely new job.

There was also information in the National Reconstruction Plan that the government plans to encourage seniors to remain in the labor market through fiscal relief.

It is not yet known how much such a relief would be. Work on appropriate fiscal solutions is to last until the first quarter of 2025.
