There are different reasons why some people may want to increase the age of government workers. Some possible reasons are:
To ease the stress on the social security system by extending the time span of employment and reducing the pension pay-outs1.
To increase the female labour force participation in the older age groups, especially in countries where women tend to retire earlier than men1.
To utilize the experience and talents of older workers who can contribute to the organization’s performance and innovation2.
To ensure a balanced workforce that reflects the diversity and interests of all citizens, including the younger generations2.
However, not everyone may agree with these reasons. Some people may prefer to retire earlier or have different views on how to address the challenges of an aging population. What do you think? �
