The initiators emphasize that the profession of a judge is associated with high responsibility and significant stress. Every day, they make decisions that can radically change people's lives, requiring maximum concentration and psychological resilience. Long-term work in such conditions can lead to professional burnout and deterioration of health.
Judges constantly face conflicts, work with criminal cases, and experience pressure from society. This creates a serious psychophysiological burden that significantly exceeds that of most civilian professions.Moreover, judges are limited in their ability to engage in other activities, participate in politics, conduct business, or publicly express their opinions. Granting the right to early retirement may reduce the risk that judges will continue to work solely for financial security, despite fatigue or declining performance.
This will allow judges to end their careers without the fear of being left without means of subsistence, which strengthens the independence and objectivity of the decisions made.Additionally, the possibility of early retirement may contribute to the renewal of the judiciary, allowing young professionals with relevant knowledge and energy to fill vacant positions. This, in turn, will promote the development of the judicial system and increase public trust. The presence of such a mechanism will allow for a gradual renewal of the composition of judges without sharp staff shortages, according to the presidential administration.
In this regard, it is proposed to establish the right to retire after a certain number of years of service for judges with at least 20 years of experience, regardless of the general retirement age.The photo on the main page is for illustrative purposes: xs.uz.
