Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill cancels the temporary validity of the 2017 Retirement Age (Parent Whose Child Has Died) Law, and turns it into a permanent provision. The law provides that an employer with more than 25 employees will not require an employee whose child has died and who has been employed by them continuously for at least seven years to retire from their job because of their age, for four years from reaching retirement age. A study conducted by the Ministry for Social Equality showed that about 70% of these parents want to remain in their jobs after the mandatory retirement age.
