Even with today’s longer lifespans and shorter pension funds, most people still draw a finishing line for their careers at 65. But not everyone.In some organisations there are employees who continue to work into their 70s, 80s and even 90s. Britain’s oldest employee is Buster Martin, who cleans vans part-time for Pimlico Plumbers. He is looking forward to his 101st birthday next month.Charlie Mullins, managing director and owner of the London-based company, also employs a 78-year-old driver and a personal assistant who is 66. “We don’t have a retirement age,” he says. “My view is if they’re capable of doing the job and want to stay on, then they can. It’s completely their choice.”One might ask why people would work if they do not have to. For some, the stimulation of work – and the view that retirement is God’s waiting room – is sufficient incentive. Businesses that employ older workers often cite advantages such as experience, commitment, politeness and a strong work ethic.Reed Boardall, a UK chilled food distribution business with a staff of 700, is another business that employs people who might have been pensioned off long ago. Keith Boardall, managing director, is 72 but works from nine to six every day. His oldest employee services the vehicles at the age of 88.Some larger organisations have gone down this road too. The Co-operative Group… Edwin Boxall, one of the Co-op’s older employees, works part-time as a manager in his local post office, which is run by the group. “I’m 75 on my next birthday and I might retire then. I’m quite fit and I enjoy work so I don’t see why I shouldn’t do a few hours.”
