Many old people work well into their 70s and 80s, running families, countries or corporations. Other people are forced to retire in their 60s or even earlier because of company or government rules. This essay will examine whether people should be allowed to continue working for as long as they want or if they should be encouraged to retire at a particular age. =====

There are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they want. First, older employees have a lot of knowledge and experience which can be lost if they are made to retire. Second, older employees are often very loyal employees and are willing to work harder than younger staff. Third, forcing someone to retire says the society does not value older people and that their useful life is over. =====

However, allowing older people to work until they die is not always a good policy. Many younger employees have more experience or skills than older employees who may not understand the newest technology and innovations. A forced retirement age allows new people and new ideas to enter the workplace. Another point is that that after a lifetime of work older people should be allowed to enjoy some free time. =====

With many young people unemployed or stuck in low-level jobs, there are often calls for the forced retirement of older workers. However, this can affect the older person’s freedom and right to work. And it can deprive society of valuable experience and insights. I believe that giving workers more choice about their retirement age will benefit society and all the people who live in it. =====
