Returement Ages of Government Employees across the World

       In India, the age of retirement for Central government employees is currently 60 years. The retirement age for State government employees vary from State to State. For example, in the State of Kerala, the retirement age for government employees is 55 years while in the State of Punjab and the State of Assam it is 60 years. Indian laws do not prescribe any retirement age for private organisations. Thus, private organisations are free to decide the retirement age for their employees, which usually is 58 to 60 years. However, in some business houses the retirement age is more than 60 years. The retirement  ages of Government employees across the world is given below.
