Frequently Asked Questions:
1. When must an employer give notice of retirement?
According to LAS (Employment Protection Act), the employer should give notice in good time before the employee turns 67. This gives the employee the opportunity to prepare and make informed decisions about their pension. It is also possible for an employee to request to continue working after the age of 67, but protection under the LAS is reduced after this point.
2. What happens if an employee wants to continue working after retirement age?
Employees have the right to work until they turn 69 according to the new rules from 2023. After that, the employer can decide to terminate the employment. If an employee wishes to continue working after retirement age, this must be clearly regulated and documented, which can also be included in this template.
3. What does flexible retirement mean?
Flexible retirement gives the employee the opportunity to decide when and how they want to withdraw their pension. This may be relevant in case of part-time retirement or if the employee wants to continue working to a certain extent even after reaching retirement age.
Relevant Swedish legislation:
- Employment Security Act (1982:80) (LAS): Regulates employer and employee rights on retirement, including the right to continue working until the age of 69.
- Social Insurance Code (2010:110): Regulates the right to a general pension and how it can be withdrawn.
- Pension agreements in collective agreements: Rules regarding occupational pensions can vary depending on collective agreements, and it is important that the employer follows these if they are applicable.
Legal security:
By using our "Retirement Notice" template, you ensure that all relevant legal aspects are covered, including that the document complies with Swedish legislation and collective agreement practice. The template is designed to reduce the risk of disputes and ensure that both employers and employees have clear expectations and guidelines before retirement.
