GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF NORTH CAROLINA
1983 SESSION
CHAPTER 878
Whereas, private employers have realized substantial payroll savings from allowing earlier employee retirements; and
Whereas, earlier retirements can reduce the need for involuntary layoffs of employees; and
Whereas, earlier retirements can help alleviate the problems of employee "burn-out", resulting in less productive workers; and
Whereas, earlier retirements can greatly open and expand career paths for younger employees; and
Whereas, earlier retirements can offer many employees the challenges of a second career; Now, therefore,
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
