The Influence of Interlocked Employment–Family Trajectories on Retirement Timing

Involuntary and Delayed Retirement as a Possible Health Risk for Lower Educated Retirees

“…Reverse causality would suggest that health produce a specific retirement timing, rather than being an outcome of retirement. In this case, those with ill-health can be expected to be selected into early retirement (Jokela et al 2010;Madero-Cabib et al 2016). The phenomenon of the healthy worker effect suggests that only healthy workers in fact are in the workforce and remain employed in older ages.…”

Blended Work and Employment Participation of Older Workers: A Further Discussion

“…Different groups of factors can be assumed to shape the costs and benefits of prolonged employment versus retirement. One central guiding framework in this respect, which has become increasingly popular in the literature on retirement timing in recent years (e.g., see Damman, Henkens, & Kalmijn, 2011;Madero-Cabib, Gauthier, & Le Goff, 2016;Raymo, Warren, Sweeney, Hauser, & Ho, 2011;Szinovacz, DeViney, & Davey, 2001), is the life course perspective. This broad theoretical framework proposes that life transitions-such as the transition from work into retirement-should be understood by taking into account the experiences and contexts that surround it (Settersten, 2003).…”

Sequence History Analysis (SHA): Estimating the Effect of Past Trajectories on an Upcoming Event

“…Many previous studies addressed such kinds of issues. For instance, Madero-Cabib et al (2015) modeled the influence of past occupational trajectories on the timing of retirement. Studer (2012) studied the effect of past working and financing conditions on the chances of obtaining a PhD among teaching assistants at the University of Geneva.…”
