Project

The Financial Crisis and the Length of Working Life

Conducted by Mikko Myrskylä; Christian Dudel, Angelo Lorenti; in Collaboration with Jo Mhairi Hale (University of St Andrews, United Kingdom)

We use an exogenous shock, i.e., the recent financial crisis, to study how working-life expectancy reacts to economic downturns and to evaluate how the effect of the crisis is mediated by socioeconomic variables and their intersections.  Detailed Description
