Points to Remember
- Retirement is no more!
- Unless it can be objectively justified (e.g. police officers, air traffic controllers)
- So you must treat everyone in the same way
- If there are capability problems deal with them through your capability procedure
- If there are conduct issues deal with them through your disciplinary procedures
- Irrespective of age

From October 2011, the default retirement age will be scrapped meaning that employers are no longer allowed to dismiss staff because they have reached the age of 65. This reflects the fact that people are living longer, healthier lives and are productive well into their later years.
