What is the retirement age of employees working in normal conditions in areas with highly disadvantaged socio-economic conditions?
According to the provisions of Clause 3 Article 169 of the Labor Code 2019 of Vietnam, the retirement age is as follows:
“Article 169. Retirement ages
1. An employee who has paid social insurance for an adequate period of time as prescribed by social insurance laws shall receive retirement pension when he/she reaches the retirement age.
2. Retirement ages of employees in normal working conditions shall be gradually increased to 62 for males by 2028 and 60 for females in 2035.
From 2021, the retirement ages of employees in normal working conditions shall be 60 yeas 03 months for males and 55 years 04 months for females, and shall increase by 03 months for males and 04 months for females after every year.
3. The retirement ages of employees who suffer from work capacity reduction; doing laborious, toxic or dangerous works; working in highly disadvantaged areas may be younger by up to 05 years than the retirement ages specified in Clause 2 of this Article, unless otherwise prescribed by law.
4. Retirement ages of skilled employees and employees in certain special cases may be older by up to 05 years than the retirement ages specified in Clause 2 of this Article, unless otherwise prescribed by law.
5. The Government shall elaborate this Article.”
Thus, for employees working in normal conditions in areas with highly disadvantaged socio-economic conditions, the retirement age may be younger by up to 05 years than the retirement ages of employees in normal working conditions under the law.
