NIR05C01 – Contract Clause on retirement age if it can be objectively justified
This clause can be included in a contract of employment only when there is a justifiable reason for enforcing a retirement age. In NI there will be very limited circumstances when a retirement age can be justified. Employers should be mindful that they could face claims of age discrimination if this clause is inserted without reason.
