Local Abstract: [PIP] The retirement age in the Czech Republic was 60 years for men and 55 years for women until 1995, when a law was passed to gradually increase it every year until it reached 62 years for men and 59 for women by the year 2007. The reason for increasing the retirement age is the rapid increase in life expectancy since 1990 (a gain of 3 years for males between 1990 and 1997) and the fact that a relatively low retirement age may result in social discrimination against Czechs within a unified Europe. A social survey was conducted in November 1996 using a representative population sample of 1302 persons aged 50 years or more. The average retirement age for women was 55.4 years and for men 60.2 years. The majority of respondents irrespective of social class, educational level, and gender did not want an increase in the retirement age, confirming the results of polls conducted during 1995 and 1996. 25% of economically active respondents aged 50-59 (almost half of them with university degrees and 37% from cities) intended to continue working. 72% of the respondents 60 and over retired at the retirement age, 6% retired earlier, and 22% retired later. Only 40% of the elderly retired willingly (women more often than men). Among the rest 24% were hesitant about retirement, 21% did not want to retire but felt compelled to do for health reasons (men more often than women), and 15% did not want to retire, but their firms did not need them any more (men more often than women). The male respondents stated on average that a person was old when he reached 67.8 years, while female respondents on average deemed that 66.1 years represented old age. The increase of the retirement age to 65 is anticipated in the next 10-15 years. - Publication Date: Date Created: 20020926 Date Completed: 19991213 Latest Revision: 20061115
