Erna Solberg (H) and the government propose to lower the age limit for compulsory occupational retirement from 20 to 13 years of age.

On Friday, in the cabinet, the government will consider a proposal to introduce pensions from the first koruna for all private sector employees.

The proposed lowering of the age limit, which is scheduled to be introduced in 2023, is one of three specific changes the government will consider.

.

- For the most willing, this may mean earning a retirement age from a summer job. This gives them seven extra years, from the age of 13, Prime Minister Solberg tells the newspaper.

Calculations show that the change will result in 51 young people receiving increased retirement savings.

The other two changes are the introduction of a minimum savings requirement of 2 percent from the first krona and up to 12 G for system members. And the rule that you must be at least 20 percent of employment to qualify as an eligible member of Mandatory Occupational Retirement Schemes.

Companies will be compensated

- The program will be introduced in 2023, and these two billion, according to the plan, will be compensated, for example, by slightly lower contributions from the employer.

- It worries us very much. This becomes an additional burden for many companies.

She says they hoped that the parties in their professional lives would come to an agreement.

- When they failed, we decide to act for them, because it is an important matter.

- It's good that as a 13-14-15-year-old you can get a summer job or work part-time. You know that someday in the future you will get a pension for this effort, says KrF leader Kjell Ingolf Ropstad.
