Ce pays d’Europe offre l’un des départs à la retraite les plus précoces, loin devant ses voisins

Denmark to Raise Retirement Age to 70 by 2040, Sparking Debate Across Europe Denmark's recent announcement to raise its retirement age to 70 by 2040 has sparked a debate across Europe about the sustainability of pension systems. The decision, driven by increasing life expectancy and financial pressures, is expected to impact millions of Danes. Similar discussions are underway in other European countries, with Italy and Germany facing similar challenges. "The government is facing a difficult situation," explains Mathilde Piqué, an expert interviewed in the RTLSoir report. "The rising cost of pensions and an aging population have made this change necessary." The report also highlights potential support measures, including disability pensions available six years before the legal retirement age for those unable to work due to health conditions. In addition, the report mentions that countries like the Netherlands have already reached a retirement age of 67, and Portugal is also considering a similar increase. The report also notes that the retirement age is regularly reviewed and indexed to life expectancy. While the increase in retirement age is a significant change, the accompanying measures aim to mitigate the impact on workers, ensuring a smoother transition and adequate financial security for those approaching retirement. The debate continues, but the need for sustainable pension systems remains a pressing issue for European nations.
