Some people believe that in order to give opportunities to new generation companies should encourage high level employees who are older than 55 to retire. Do you agree or disagree? Give your reasons and personal experience.
In present-day society, as the global recession continues, it becomes harder for the graduated students to find a suitable job. Some people claim that granting that elders retire earlier, the new generation would obtain more opportunities. To my mind, however, I do not wholly agree with it.
On the one hand, it is true that youngsters can take advantage of the circumstance that senior employees quit their job earlier. Obviously, the company will gain more headcount to hire younger employees. That is to say, junior candidates will access to more opportunities to get an offer and the competitions amongst them will be less intense. Simultaneously, as the high level colleagues’ leaving, the youngster who had hired by the company already will promote to senior level. As a result, the salary and individual welfare thus be increased. Hence, it is undeniable that the younger generation does take advantage of elder’s early retirement.
On the other hand, some serious problems occur when companies encourage high level employees to leave. Even though the company will have a chance to hire some new employees who do not need pay big salaries for, thereby reducing labor cost, but companies still lose abundant money on dismissal wage. Besides, the company has to face the risk of promoting junior staffs because they do not have rich relevant experiences and nobody knows whether they can do the same excellent job as their ex-colleagues or not. Notably, it is too late to find a qualified mentor for the new heads because the perfect teachers had left already.
Given the above argument, it is reasonable to conclude that advantages and disadvantages are coexisting when companies encourage senior employees to take early retirement. Consequently, I am convinced that the company should take into serious consideration before taking the action. |
