How long will Europeans work?

The article discusses projected increases in retirement ages across European Union countries by the 2060s. According to an OECD report analyzed by Euronews, the average retirement age for men is expected to rise from 64.7 to 66.7 years, while for women it will increase from 64 to 66.6 years. Around two-thirds of EU countries plan to raise the retirement age for men, and three-quarters for women. The report notes that raising the retirement age is a common strategy to improve the financial sustainability of pension systems without reducing pension levels. It highlights significant variations between countries, with Denmark set to have the highest retirement age for men at 74 years by the late 2060s, while Turkey expects the largest increase, with men retiring 13 years later. The article provides data on current retirement ages and future projections for several EU member states.

Bias read (Center): The article presents factual data and projections based on OECD reports without overtly favoring any particular political ideology. While the topic relates to social policy, which can be politically sensitive, the framing remains neutral, focusing on statistical trends and international comparisons.
