What is your company registered under which act? Do you have service rules or certified standing orders? What is your present retirement age for workers and executives? Your company is located in which state?

Retirement age in the private sector differs from state to state as per respective standing orders rules. Retirement age is not uniform.

You can have the minimum age of retirement as per the law of the particular state in which you are located. Alternatively, you can have a common retirement age, which should not be less than the retirement age decided by the state government. However, you are at liberty to have a higher retirement age, which is more than the retirement age decided by the government.

The retirement age is a subject matter of Standing Orders, a very important and noteworthy aspect from regulatory points. You have to refer to your company's certified standing orders if they are in place. If not, then the age of retirement is 60 years as per Model Standing Orders. You can have two sets of service rules: one set of service rules to cover workmen and non-management cadre of employees and a second set for management staff. Accordingly, you can retire the workmen and non-management employees on attaining 58 years only when it is a clause under certified standing orders, not otherwise. 65 is very high, so you can amend certified standing orders if available to make it 58 years. If you do not have any certified standing orders as yet, it's an opportunity to get the same and other provisos drafted nicely and apply for certification. To have Standing Orders certified, the strength of employees of your establishment should be 50 as per directions from the state of UP Govt. In HP, the strength is 50 for the applicability of the Model Standing Orders Act, announced by notification dated 10/10/1983. The name of the Act is the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946 (Model Standing Orders called for the sake of brevity). Many smart organizations have changed and devised new ones and are successfully doing work. Nowadays, I am drafting Standing Orders for one of my clients having plants in Baddi, Assam, and Uttaranchal. You can seek any support should you have any, anytime. The procedure for certification is simple and also explained under the Act. The certifying authority, normally a DLC, fixes one or two dates to ascertain along with workers' representatives that the draft Standing Orders match the guidelines of Model Standing Orders, and workmen representatives do not have any objections. Upon his satisfaction, it is certified, and in case he noted something contrary, you are given a chance to justify the changes or make it according to provisions with which you have been working until today.
