China Raises Retirement Age to 63 for Men, 58 for Women Effective January 1, 2025, First Adjustment in Over 70 Years
Jan 1, 2025, 12:32 PM
China has implemented a gradual increase in the statutory retirement age, marking the first adjustment in over 70 years. Starting January 1, 2025, the retirement age for male workers will rise from 60 to 63 over a period of 15 years. Additionally, the retirement age for female workers will be extended from 50 to 55 and from 55 to 58. This reform is part of a broader strategy to address the challenges posed by an aging population and declining labor force, as the country anticipates that by 2050, more than 500 million citizens will be over 60 years old. The interim measures for a flexible retirement system were issued to ease the elderly care burden and improve workforce efficiency.
