With the EYT law that came into effect in 2023, the inequalities in retirement conditions have become more pronounced. Those insured before September 8, 1999, who are SSK employees, can retire without age conditions by completing 5000 to 5975 premium days and 20 years of insurance for women and 25 years for men.



THOSE INSURED AFTER 1999...



However, the conditions change for those insured between September 8, 1999, and April 30, 2008; this group can retire at 58 for women and 60 for men after completing 7000 premium days. Those insured after April 30, 2008, will be able to retire based on the date they complete 7200 premium days as employees and 9000 premium days as tradesmen and civil servants.



DEMAND FOR GRADUAL RETIREMENT IS INCREASING



According to a report in Habertürk; especially those whose retirement period has been extended by 20 years due to a one-day difference may seek gradual retirement. The sudden increase of the waiting period from just 2 years to 18 years before the EYT regulation has caused a significant backlash among workers.



HERE IS THE FORMULA BEING DISCUSSED



Those waiting for gradual retirement under the umbrella of the Justice in Retirement Association (EMAD-DER) are requesting a retirement age limit of 43 for women and 45 for men for those who started working by December 31, 2000, with this age limit to be increased by one year each year until it reaches 51 for women and 53 for men for those who started working in 2008. Additionally, it is requested that the number of premium days start from 6400 instead of 7000 and be increased by 75 days each year.



RETIREMENT AGE INCREASES EVERY TWO YEARS



The gradual retirement system continues to be applied for those insured after April 30, 2008. In this context, women who complete 7200 or 9000 premium days by December 31, 2035, will be able to retire at 58, while men will be able to retire at 60. However, for those who complete their premium days after this date, the retirement age will increase every two years. Many people currently in the workforce cannot gain the right to retire until the age of 65, even if they work continuously. Men who started working after January 1, 2019, and women insured after January 1, 2023, will be able to retire at 65, even if they work as civil servants or tradesmen. For those insured as employees, men insured after January 1, 2024, will also be subject to the 65-year age requirement.



LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS ON THE TABLE IN THE PARLIAMENT



Various legislative proposals have been submitted to the Parliament to address the inequalities in the retirement system. Most recently, CHP Karabük Deputy Cevdet Akçay submitted a bill that includes reducing the 9000 premium day requirement for tradesmen and civil servants to 7200, as it is for workers. This proposal envisions the retirement age being graduated based on the number of premium days and the date of starting work. According to this proposal, the retirement age for those insured between September 8, 1999, and December 31, 2000, is aimed to be set at 49 for women and 51 for men, with the goal of gradually reducing it to 58 for women and 60 for men by increasing it by one year each year.
