The Large One
Who's Next?
My colleague will be 65 next year, and is considering retirement. Conversely, she is also considering not retiring. She is very good at her job, but then said that she will probably get turfed out on her 65th birthday anyway.
That to me doesn't sound right. Notwithstanding that both parties (her and the company) might want to continue with the status quo, and she carry on working, can a company unilaterally release someone purely on the back of the fact that they've reached retirement age?
I thought the act of retirement was down to the individual.
