Failed promises to worn-out workers

-

Back in 2020, Socialdemokratiet (social-democrats) entered in a majority agreement with SF (socialists), Enhedlisten (red-green alliance) and DF to make it easier for worn-out workers to retire earlier (seniorpension). However, the agreement is not present in the finance law for 2024. Why? The social democrats claim there is no longer a majority behind the agreement and have therefore decided not to follow up on it. 

  • If you are assessed that you can only work 15 hours per week and you have six years until retirement age, then you can qualify for an early pension. The idea of the agreement was to raise the bar to 18 hours per week.
