日本人は何歳まで働くの？｜How Long Do Japanese People Keep Working?｜Japanese Podcast

日本人は何歳まで働くのでしょうか。65歳から69歳では半分以上が働いています。定年と年金の違いを整理し、週3日働く義理の父と、自分の会社を始めた私の話もします。私は今、やりたい仕事なら続けたいと思っています。 How long do people in Japan keep working? More than half of those aged 65–69 had a job in 2025. In simple Japanese, I explain why retirement age, pension age, and the age someone stops working are not necessarily the same. I also share how my father-in-law works about three days a week and why starting my own company changed how I feel about working later in life. ▼ Sources / 参考資料 総務省統計局「統計からみた我が国の高齢者」（2026年9月20日） https://www.stat.go.jp/data/topics/to... 総務省統計局「高齢者の就業」（2025年の就業率・雇用形態） https://www.stat.go.jp/data/topics/pd... 厚生労働省「高年齢者の雇用」（65歳までの雇用確保・70歳までの就業確保） https://www.mhlw.go.jp/stf/seisakunit... 日本年金機構「老齢年金」（原則65歳から） https://www.nenkin.go.jp/service/juky... 【My Instagram for Japanese Learning】 https://www.instagram.com/yosuke_teac... 【Onikanji】https://onikanji.com/?ref=yosuketeach...
