The Parliamentary Administration and Justice Committee is considering an optional proposal to raise the public-sector retirement age from 64 to 68, amid a declining workforce and a financial crisis. Raed Hamadeh, head of the Public Sector Employees’ Association, says the extension could help the state retain experienced staff and give employees an additional opportunity to improve their circumstances as the value of salaries and benefits continues to erode. Retirement would remain an option for those who do not wish to continue working or whose health prevents them from doing so. Other proposals before Parliament would raise the retirement age to 66, while the association is holding firm at 68.
