Making retirement work for you

Retiring earlier than expected?

Retirement can come early – for good reasons or due to an unexpected change in circumstances. Around 1 in 5 Australians retire earlier than they expected, often because of redundancy or health reasons. If this happens to you, it’s good to know there’s no set age to retire. Options are available to make the most of your personal circumstances.
