 Proposed Pre-retirement Program for DMMMSU Personnel

Introduction/Rationale

This Pre-retirement Program is an off-shot of a study that aimed to determine to

readiness of DMMMSU retiring personnel to embrace another journey in their life. The

proposed program was anchored on the following: a) readiness along phycho social, medical,

spiritual and financial; b) respondents’ concept of retirement; c) respondents’ plans upon

retirement; and d) perceived problems upon retirement.

The responses were tabulated and analyzed, identified the gaps and from there, the

proposed pre-retirement program was crafted. The said program was presented in a Focus

Group Discussion participated in by the University Administrators, Human Resource

Management Officers, University Faculty Association President and University Non

Teaching Personnel President, retired DMMMSU personnel represented by 1 Faculty and 1

Non Teaching Personnel to validate the output of the study and to further enhance the

proposed program.

Objectives

The proposed pre-retirement program is intended to address the gaps identified in the

study and prepare the would-be retirees of DMMMSU as a way of providing care and

concern for their retirement life. Specifically, it hoped to:

1. Come up with a doable/feasible pre-retirement program which will eventually be

accepted as part of the Human Resource Management of DMMSU that will be

funded/subsidized and supported by the university administration, the faculty and non-

teaching associations.

2. Promote quality and healthy well-being to all personnel through understanding the

midlife career transition experience from a working professional to an engaging retiree.

3. Provide a venue that will accommodate would-be retirees of DMMMSU and those who

are planning to retire in an opportunity to examine across experiences that will impact

the quality of life in retirement.

4. Redefined the traditional notion of retirement as a total withdrawal from the working life

to a retirement that is productive and life fulfilling.

5. Assist every employee, evaluate, prepare, prioritize and eventually plan oneself for

retirement towards career shift to explore new options and pursue new interests.

6. Empower each employee that retirement plan is indeed an important investment goal that

will assist them to be self-reliant and financially productive especially when they are no

longer working or regularly earning.

7. Introduce a mindset of a retirement - first focus for each employee for them to be self-

assured that their chosen retirement plan is the right one for their idea of retirement.
