Even though majority of people starts their retirement in between their 50 to 60 years of life, some people debate that there should be an retirement age for everybody regardless of their job category, whereas the others contradicts to this statement. In this essay I will explain why I completely disagree to this view and which all type of employees should be considered to retire early no matter what their age is.
Firstly, retirement from a job will completely depends on the financial situation and the mental willingness of an individual. Some people are well paid which results in more financial stability, so they can lead a better retirement life even in their 40s, on the other hand, a certain group of people are only getting income where their expenses equalizes or are more than income which in turn needs them to work till death in order to survive. Setting an standard age for retirement will affect both category of people either mentally or financially. Moreover, some people will not be mentally prepared to work till a certain age whereas some people do not wish to sit idle not even for a minute. For instance, according to the survey which is conducted among the people from various age group and different occupational background, only 10% of people were interested in setting retirement age while 90% people believe it depend on a persons mindset.
There are certain type of job where working more than a certain number of years may affect them both physically and mentally. Occupations in field such as mines, quarry, military service, technical and construction works or even IT field, noy only requires lot of physical hardships, but also mental stress. Being employed in any of this field for more than 10 year may result them with poor health conditions which inn turn result them to spend all their life earnings in hospital for further treatment. Therefore, this group of people are adviced to retire early and either stop working at all or try to get job in any other sectors. For Example, majority of people who are working in IT field quit their job within 5 to 10 years due to mental stress and several health problem such as vision loss, neck and back pain due to continuous use of system in a same posture, and works in a several other different field.
In conclusion, even though, it depends completely on an individual person whether to completely stop working when they are old, employment in certain field such as IT, mines, quarry and so on are recommended to retire early due to the side effects of doing that job longer.
