Session 4: Employment of older persons and health care

In the absence of pension for all citizens, many older persons continue working after corporate retirement age. Different age requirements are creating gaps in protection. Corporate retirement age is commonly set at 55; JKP does not accept persons older than 54 years old; JHT allows participants to withdraw their savings at age 56; JP’s pensionable age is age 59 and increase to age 65 by 2043. Many older persons will neither be protected by JKP nor become eligible to receive JHT and JP.
