Tomorrow is the last date on which you will be able to serve notice of retirement on an employee who will be 65 (or such age as is provided for within their contract of employment) on or before the 30th September 2011 or who has already reached retirement age.
If you want to take advantage of the current legislation before it becomes necessary to provide evidence to show that a retirement age can be justified you must make sure that those employees affected recieve their notice by tomorrow at the latest.
One other point that is worth noting is that although the last possible date that an employee given notice under the DRA can work until is the 5th April 2012, although any employee given notice will still have the opportunity to request to work past that retirement age, provided they make such a request within the requisite timeframes.
