Some professions require the worker to expose himself to a series of dangers for the good of other people in society. For example, those whose work involves risks to their physical and psychological integrity, as well as those who have to deal with toxic products.
In these cases, it is possible to apply for “special retirement”, forming a group of professionals who retire earlier than the others as a form of retribution. See what these jobs are here.

As you might imagine, workers who deal with public safety and the preservation of human life are within this group. However, there are many other professions that fall under the special retirement rules, but which are perhaps not the most obvious guesses. In this case, they are divided into those of low, medium and high risk.
Crusher, rock loader, digger, hatcher, underground miners, underground rock crusher operator and cave rock driller.
White Phosphorus Extractor, Mercury Extractor, Paint Maker, Lead Smelter, Lead Roller, Lead Modeler, workers in tunnels or flooded galleys, permanent workers in underground locations, explosive loader and person in charge of fire.
Airport staff, nursing assistant, dry cleaning assistant, general service assistant (who works in unhealthy conditions), firefighter, surgeon, graphic accountant, dentist, electrician (above 250 volts), nurses, chemical and metallurgical engineers, diver, stevedore, stoker, printer, journalist, doctor, diver, miners, truck driver buses, radioactivity or chemical laboratory technicians, oil extraction workers, urban and road transport drivers, large tractor drivers, boiler operators, x-ray operator, fishermen, teachers, receptionist or telephone operator, stripper, dyer, lathe operator, construction workers in large works and armed guards.
The minimum age for receiving this type of retirement also goes through the criterion of the degree of risk. Thus, low-risk professions require 25 years of activity and being over 60 years old. Medium-risk professions require 20 years of activity and over 58 years of age. Finally, high-risk professionals must have 15 years of activity and be over 55 years old.
