Practice question
A professional racehorse jockey duly licensed by PHILRACOM reaches fifty-five. A colleague who works only as an office clerk at the racetrack claims the same special retirement age solely because both have the same employer. Which is best?
- The special age necessarily applies to every racetrack worker
- The jockey statute applies only after age seventy
- The Act specifically addresses the licensed professional jockey; the clerk’s entitlement requires the otherwise applicable law or arrangement
- PHILRACOM licensing is irrelevant to the statutory category
- The statute abolishes all other retirement benefits
Legal references
- RA10789, Section3, added Article302-A: https://lawphil.net/statutes/repacts/ra2016/ra_10789_2016.html
