I mean they could instead fire them, at least they can opt to this.

Going by age, wouldn't that be breaking the law? Can't imagine they'd get more than a slap on wrist for it though, so kind of surprised they even bothered with the offer.

  • If it’s just by age I’d guess yes, but they always have the option to do mass layoffs including these folks + others.

    In Spain there’s something similar called “prejubilación” (apologies for the Spanish link but the Wikipedia entry does not have an English version):
