ANA Raises Retirement Age to 65, Keeping Skilled Workers
All Nippon Airways (ANA) is set to raise its retirement age for employees to 65, effective from April 2027. This decision follows negotiations with the ANA Workers' Union (ANA Kōmuten Rōdō Kumiai) and will apply to all employees, including cabin attendants and pilots. Currently, workers aged 60 or older can enter annual re-employment contracts, working as nonregular employees until they reach 65. The new retirement age will come into effect if both parties reach an agreement in their ongoing negotiations. The airline aims to enable highly skilled senior employees to continue working with a sense of security. These workers, such as pilots and mechanics with national qualifications, will receive about 90% of their previous salary after turning 60. After the change, workers aged 60 or older will become regular employees with limited responsibilities and duties, facilitating the transfer of skills to younger workers. ANA's planned retirement age increase to 65 aims to retain experienced, highly skilled workers and encourage knowledge sharing with younger employees. The change, effective from April 2027, is subject to agreement between ANA and the ANA Workers' Union.
