Why do many unit leaders need to take a back seat at the age of 55?

We know that many friends are going to retire after decades of work, and now the leaders of many units are going to retire at the age of 55, which makes people feel very strange. Obviously, the legal retirement age in China is not like this. Why do they have to take a back seat when they are around 55?

We know that for most units, the number of leaders in all functional categories is limited, that is to say, if the original leaders don't retire, these young leaders can't be promoted to their posts, so they take a back seat, which is generally called leaving their posts. Although nominally, except for some important meetings and activities, they will not come to their posts, which is basically equivalent to retirement in disguise. However, since 20 10, our country has banned the demotion of all ages, so now if you see this situation of leaving your post early, it is generally illegal, although this phenomenon still exists in many places, especially in units below the county level, many leaders can't avoid it. Generally speaking, it is a department-level cadre. Men left at the age of 57, women at the age of 52, department-level cadres around the age of 55, and women at the age of 50.

The reason why this phenomenon occurs is that people are not as experienced as young people in all aspects after they get old. Although they have rich work experience, their innovative ideas and some sense of responsibility are slightly risky, and they may rely on past experience to deal with things directly, so there may be some mistakes or imperfect handling, and because they are older in all aspects, they are more capable of accepting new things. But now the state also clearly stipulates that if these people want to resign from their current posts, they must leave, instead of continuing to eat the original empty salary on the grounds of retreating to the second line. And even if you have this idea, you should take part in the current cadre assessment, and you can quit smoothly after reaching the standard.

At present, the post management in local units is very strict. Those who want to exploit loopholes need to give up their thoughts as soon as possible. They must strictly abide by the regulations given by posts and units, do their jobs well, and at the same time do not affect others.
