-The early retirement age of certain professions may be even lower due to their danger, hardship or toxicity.

In this case, the minimum age for these retirements with a relief contract will be 63 years and four months for people who do not reach a contribution of 35 years and six months and 62 years and two months for workers who do accumulate that quotation.
