Many countries have eliminated mandatory retirement.

Many countries have eliminated mandatory retirement. However, in countries like Japan, Russia, and Australia, the policy of mandatory retirement still exists. Which of the following is not an argument for mandatory retirement? Functional decline is bound to occur, and mandatory retirement is simply a proactive approach to reducing incompetence in the workforce. Each generation should have career opportunities and mandatory retirement allows opportunities for younger people. It allows younger people the opportunity to advance and have access to higher-level positions. Aging and decline dramatically vary from person to person; therefore, a 60-year-old worker may no longer be able to function while a 90-year-old may still be highly productive.
