Is Your Company's Retirement Policy Mandatory? Seeking Clarity on Retirement Age

Hello All, I have been working in an IT company as an HR Generalist for the past 6 years. I would like to inquire whether the retirement policy is mandatory in the company or not. If it is mandatory, could you please confirm what the retirement age will be? Please confirm at your earliest convenience.

Thanks in advance,

Divya

My simple and specific answer to you is as follows:

Whether the retirement policy is mandatory or not, it is essential to ensure clarity in the subject and to eliminate any ambiguity in the minds of individuals.

Retirement Age and Policy Considerations

No labor law prescribes a retirement age. However, unless the age of retirement or superannuation is mentioned in the contract of employment between the employer and the workmen, such termination by the employer will be considered retrenchment. Hence, a superannuation policy is a must.
