FDP councilors want to retire at 67 and vacation for two more weeks
The Council of States of the FDP of Zurich, Ruedi Noser, with the support of the Councils of States of the FDP, proposes a new pension agreement. This wants to increase the retirement age to 67 years and, therefore, two more weeks of vacation for everyone.

“This is the most economical, sustainable and fair solution for companies and society,” Noser tells “NZZ am Sonntag”. Last week he presented a proposal, signed by the 12 FDP councilors. Specifically, he wants to increase the retirement age by two years to 67 years. In exchange, those under 50 should now have six weeks, and those over 50 with seven weeks off.
Adjustments to AHV and occupational pensions are needed, but should be designed in such a way that the active generation benefits from them as well. “Those who work benefit from greater vacation rights and stay fit for longer in the labor market, pensioners benefit from secure pensions,” says the text of the motion.
Compared to the NZZ, Noser was convinced: “I’m sure if you ask the 30-year-olds, they support that model.”
At the same time, the additional costs would be lower for the economy than through an increase in wage contributions and VAT. Additionally, the proposal provides time to carefully consider the other measures required at AHV and BVG. (bzbasel.ch)
