“…In a study of 22 European countries, Van Bavel and de Winter () found becoming a grandparent was often considered by working people to be the right time to take early retirement. Queiroz and Souza () found couples concurrently plan their retirement, another social norm which resulted in early retirement for one or both spouses. It is also notable that Goodwin and O'Connor () found a fantasy about retirement is common among working people and members of the general public more broadly, with this socially constructed positive view of retirement leisure an important contributor to early retirement decisions.…”

Aim Accelerating population ageing is raising concern in many countries now in relation to the availability of workers for essential work roles and responsibilities. A scoping research literature review was done to identify factors currently associated with early retirement and contemporary strategies to encourage and support longer working lives. Methods Using the PRISMA‐ScR Checklist, we searched the Directory of Open Access Journals and EBSCO Discovery Service for published 2013–2018 research articles using the keyword/MeSH term “early retirement”; 54 English‐language articles in peer‐review journals were reviewed. Results Seven early retirement factors were revealed: Ill health, good health, workplace issues, the work itself, ageism, social norms and having achieved personal financial or pension requirement criteria. Six suggested solutions, none proven effective, were identified: Occupational health programmes, workplace enhancements, work adjustments, addressing ageism, changing social norms and pension changes. Conclusions The evidence base on early retirement prevention is not strong, with qualitative investigations needed for in‐depth understandings of early retirement influences and mixed‐methods studies needed to test early retirement prevention solutions for their effects. Implications for practice Until more evidence is available, every organisation should perform an early retirement risk assessment and identify current versus needed policies and programmes to encourage and enable more middle‐aged and older people to work longer.

“…According to the literature on collective household behaviour, the higher the household earnings, the more affordable it is for partners to retire jointly, that is, the income effect increases the probability of the advancing joint retirement among households (Blau & Riphahn, 1999; Kapur & Rogowski, 2007). Higher earnings also increase the opportunity costs of retirement, because the monetary benefits of remaining in the labour force are greater; in other words, the substitution effect decreases the probability of advancing joint retirement (De Preter et al, 2015; Queiroz & Souza, 2017). Nevertheless, there is also recent evidence suggesting that joint leisure does not vary with the conventional socio‐economic variables, so the intra‐household wage gap may not explain the time partners spend together (Browning et al, 2021).…”

This study examines joint retirement in Finland. Employing a regression discontinuity design, the study leverages the exogenous variation provided by the eligibility age for earnings‐related pensions. The analysis yields three key findings. First, reaching the eligibility age has a significant effect on an individual's retirement. Second, male spouses' retirement at the age of 63 has a spillover effect on their female spouses. Third, disaggregated analyses show that older spouses in low‐income households delay their retirement, older male (female) spouses with female (male) primary earners postpone their retirement, and younger female spouses with male primary earners expedite their retirement.
