Congratulations, you have decided to retire. This time in your life can be both exciting and confusing.
Review the information contained in this section to help you understand the retiree health care benefits offered to Stanley Black & Decker retirees. The retiree health care benefits available to you will differ based upon whether you have reached your Medicare eligibility date when you retire. Your Medicare eligibility date is the first of the month in which you reach age 65. If your birthday is the first of the month, your Medicare eligibility date is the first of the prior month. If you are under 65 at the time of your retirement, you must be at least age 55 with 10 or more total years of service, based upon your adjusted service date, on your last day paid to be eligible for retiree health benefits.
