Conducted by Mikko Myrskylä; Christian Dudel, Angelo Lorenti; in Collaboration with Jo Mhairi Hale (University of St Andrews, United Kingdom), Elke Loichinger, Sebastian Klüsener (both: Federal Institute for Population Research, Wiesbaden, Germany)

We assess how working-life expectancy at age 50 has developed in recent years, how it differs between institutional settings, how it depends on economic trends, and how it differs between socioeconomic groups. Our analyses are based on data from Germany, the USA, and other countries.  Detailed Description
