Gradual Retirement: Will It Be Implemented in 2023?

Discussions about gradual retirement are of great importance, especially for the hundreds of thousands of individuals who cannot benefit from the EYT regulation. Social media users frequently raise the question, "Will gradual retirement be enacted?" So, what kind of developments can we expect regarding the gradual retirement law this year?

CHP Karabük Deputy and Planning and Budget Commission Member Cevdet Akay had submitted a bill regarding the gradual retirement system to the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM). However, there have been no new developments reflected in the public eye after this proposal. It appears that the government does not currently have the issue of gradual retirement on its agenda.

In the long term, especially considering the upcoming elections, there is a high possibility that there may be some prospect regarding the gradual retirement regulation. Therefore, many individuals are expecting the topic to be revisited on social media and various platforms.

Innovations in the retirement system directly affect the living standards of many individuals. Especially for employees who cannot benefit from EYT, gradual retirement is seen as an important exit strategy. This situation will likely continue to be on the agenda of politics and economic policies.

Changes in the financial system are among the prominent factors affecting the retirement system. If more information comes regarding the related gradual retirement regulations, it is likely that a wide segment of society will be affected. Therefore, public interest and demand for this issue continue.
