Phased Retirement
Phased retirement is broadly defined as any program allowing for gradual decreases in working time and workload instead of an abrupt move from full-time employment to retirement.
Phased retirement may take one of two forms: a pre-retirement gradual reduction in hours (or days) of work or post-retirement part-time work for pensioners who wish to remain employed.

Pre-retirement Leave and Vacations

Retirement Preparation Programs
There are programs offering help to workers nearing retirement in areas such as health care, financial planning, housing arrangements, life adjustments, legal matters, organization of leisure time and job finding skills for a second career. These may help older workers prepare for new challenges while alleviating possible anxiety.

Transition to Retirement
The transition from full-time employment to complete retirement is an important step in a worker's life. A large number of collective agreements contain clauses pertaining to older workers nearing retirement. Older workers who opt to reduce their working hours, as well as those who opt to work beyond the normal retirement age, need to carefully consider the impact of such decisions on their benefits coverage.
