Japan is aging more and more seriously. At present, the elderly over 65 years old have exceeded 28% of the total population, so it is a helpless choice to extend the retirement age. Kawasaki Jiro, Japanese Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare, once said, "Let 80% of the 70-year-old people work" and "build a society that will never retire".
Because most elderly people in Japan don't live with their children. Working more and saving more for the elderly is also to pass the boring life after retirement, which may be the choice of more and more elderly people in Japan. The ideal retirement age for the elderly in Japan is 73.
In fact, the delayed retirement of Japanese companies is not easy to muddle along. Only when the old people pass the unit assessment and their health conditions permit can they renew their labor contracts for one year.
Extended data:
China's retirement is "should retire", that is, compulsory retirement. According to the "Regulations on the Implementation of the Labor Contract Law", the labor contract will be automatically terminated when it reaches the statutory retirement age. In this case, the elderly who meet the retirement conditions have to retire. If the payment is less than 15 years, the payment will continue by participating in the flexible employment insurance.
The state formulates the policy of automatic termination of labor contracts, mainly to prevent employees of some enterprises or institutions from finding reasons not to retire for a long time. And China's labor security rights and interests are very good. For example, various holidays, sick leave, personal leave, family leave, annual leave and so on. If the worker is unable to go to work due to illness, the sick leave time can be up to two years.
