on september 13, the decision on the implementation of the gradual delay of the statutory retirement age voted and passed by the standing committee of the national people's congress clearly stated: "the implementation of the gradual delay of the statutory retirement age should adhere to the principles of small-step adjustments, flexible implementation, classified promotion, and overall consideration." correctly grasping the important principles of reform will help us fully, objectively and accurately understand the reform of delaying the statutory retirement age.

the important principles of the reform of delaying the statutory retirement age are formed on the basis of understanding the concerns of the masses through multiple channels, listening carefully to the opinions of various parties, and deeply analyzing and judging the situation. they comprehensively consider the necessity, urgency, feasibility and operability of the reform. in recent years, in the process of reform research and demonstration, relevant departments have collected opinions from all parties through public opinion surveys, seminars, letters from the masses, and proposals and proposals at the "two sessions". some workers hope to retire earlier, some hope to retire later, and most people hope to have a certain degree of flexibility in their retirement age, and pay attention to the impact of the reform on employment, social security, and elderly care. the relevant departments have incorporated these opinions and suggestions into specific policy measures and related supporting measures as much as possible, such as implementing the principles of voluntariness and flexibility, reasonably determining the target age for delaying retirement, and improving the rhythm of adjusting the statutory retirement age, so as to make the reform measures more adapted to the national conditions, social conditions and people's sentiments.

the important principle of delaying the statutory retirement age reform highlights the flexibility and inclusiveness of the reform. "small step adjustment" shows that the reform is gradual. retirement will not be delayed for several years at once, but will be delayed by one month every few months, with a relatively slow pace. "flexible implementation" means that the reform will not force everyone to reach the delayed statutory retirement age before retirement. under the conditions stipulated by the policy, employees can flexibly delay retirement or retire early. overall, this reform fully takes into account various groups of people and different situations, and is both solidly advanced and prudent, expanding the space for workers to choose their retirement age independently.

from the important principles and policy points of the reform of delaying the statutory retirement age, we can also see the systematic, holistic and coordinated nature of the reform. as a major social public policy, delaying the statutory retirement age involves many aspects of the economy and society. the reform content not only includes adjusting the retirement age, but also a series of supporting measures will be launched simultaneously. for example, in terms of employment, it is proposed that the country implement an employment priority strategy, and clearly support young people's employment and entrepreneurship, and strengthen the development of employment positions for older workers; in terms of labor rights and interests, it is proposed to protect the basic rights and interests of workers over the statutory retirement age, and strengthen the protection of the rights and interests of workers in flexible employment and new employment forms; in terms of older unemployed people, it is clarified that unemployment insurance and pension insurance related preferential protection policies; improve pension and childcare services, and there are also relevant policies to follow up. overall planning and multiple measures will promote the formation of policy synergy and enhance the overall effectiveness of reform.

at present, relevant departments have opened online and offline channels such as electronic social security cards, 12333 app on handheld devices, and service windows of social security agencies to facilitate the public to inquire about their statutory retirement age. due to the large number of units and personnel involved, the long implementation period, and the relatively professional policies, there is still a lot of work to be done to implement the reform task of delaying the statutory retirement age. next, all localities and relevant departments should focus on key and difficult issues of concern to the public, strengthen publicity and interpretation, do a good job in policy coordination, improve service quality, promote the smooth implementation of reforms in a steady and orderly manner, and strive to make reform measures more adapted to the requirements of economic and social development and more in line with the overall interests, fundamental interests, and long-term interests of the general public.
