Congress Bans Forcing Retirement Before Age 70
Congress passes a bill prohibiting private employers from forcing workers to retire before 70 starting next year. The measure extends to state and local governments with occupational exceptions while keeping 65 as the Social Security full-benefit age. The bill stems from lobbying by business and higher education groups and allows faculty with tenure to retire by July 1, 1982.

Early indications show most will retire around 65 or earlier, with executives warning of cost and advancement impacts and urging pre retirement counseling and flexible assignments.

The 1977 birth rate rose about 5 percent to roughly 3.3 million births, the first increase since 1970. Experts say the rise reflects economic recovery and postponement effects rather than a surge in births, with calls that fertility remains near zero population growth levels.
