Usage Note

Prejubilar is a Spanish administrative coinage combining pre- and jubilar (to retire). It specifically refers to schemes that retire workers before the standard pension age, often as part of corporate restructuring (la empresa prejubiló a cien empleados). The noun is prejubilación and the person affected is a prejubilado. The concept is common in Spanish labor law but has no single-word English equivalent.
