abstract: 'The authors study the effect of the minimum wage on the employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes and Social Security claiming of older US workers from 1983 to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2016. The probability of work at or near the minimum wage increases
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
substantially near retirement, and previous researchers and policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
suggest that older workers may be particularly vulnerable to any
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disemployment effects of the minimum wage. Results show no evidence that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the minimum wage causes earlier retirements. Instead, estimates suggest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that higher minimum wages increase earnings and may have small positive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects on the labor supply of workers in the key ages of 62 to 70.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Consistent with increased earnings and delayed retirement, higher
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
minimum wages decrease the number of Social Security beneficiaries and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
amount of benefits disbursed. The minimum wage appears to increase
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
financial resources for workers near retirement.'
