Spanish pension expert says workers should leave jobs on retirement-age date
Spanish Social Security official Alfonso Muñoz says employers should deregister workers on their retirement-age date.
This applies to people reaching ordinary retirement age, which the article gives as 65 or 67, depending on the case.
The last day recorded as working should be the day they reach that age.
Retirement takes effect the following day, so leaving work earlier or later could cause a mismatch in the paperwork.
Muñoz advises employees to tell their employer in advance so the work record is ended on the correct date.
Self-employed people should check the required steps and documents with the tax office and Social Security office before stopping work.
If the dates do not match, they may need to submit a new pension application.

Para que se produzca la jubilación, es necesario cesar en el trabajo. Por tanto, la empresa nos tiene que dar de baja laboral el mismo día que cumplimos la edad, ni un día antes ni un día después
