Although the most common retirement age in the countries of the European Union is 65, many countries have decided to increase retirement age to 67 years. Moreover, European governments bet on encouraging active pension.
The shortage of medical staff is an urgent problem throughout Europe, and many countries have opted for active pension, so that these doctors can work for up to 72 years.
What is the maximum retirement age in Europe?
In FranceDoctors and doctors can work up to 72 as long as they work or do part -time in places like homes. The Gallic country has also applied a time to tax benefits to those professionals who compile a job with the pension pension. However, this tax benefit has already been withdrawn, because the number of professionals who have chosen to continue working after 65 years has already fallen.
Italy It is another of the countries where maximum pension is in 72 years. The Transalpino government estimates that 40,000 health workers will retire this year, and in this sense their priority is to hook young people to general practitioner medicine. For example, medical staff at the age of 68 can organize a young person in his office and transfer the competencies related to some of his patients, in exchange for sharing the salary.
In PortugalThe retirement age is in the 66 years, but the Public Health Service has just hired 900 retired doctors. To do this, they have accredited through an exam that they can continue to exercise. In exchange, they can choose a schedule and accumulate the pension with 75 % of the corresponding salary.
In GermanyIt can be exercised for up to 67 years in public health. On the other hand, the German government has opted for tax benefits to encourage doctors to continue to work after retirement.
According to the BBVA Institute, the most common retirement age in the European Union is 65 years old, although many member states have decided to increase retirement age to 67 years.
