abstract: 'The aim of this paper is to examine differences in life expectancy (LE)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between self-employed (SE) and paid employee (PE) workers when they
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
become retirement pensioners, looking at levels of pension income using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
administrative data from Spanish social security records. We draw on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Continuous Sample of Working Lives (CSWL) to quantify changes in total
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
life expectancy at age 65 (LE65) among retired men over the longest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
possible period covered by this data source: 2005-2018. These changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are broken down by pension regime and initial pension income level for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
three periods. The literature presents mixed evidence, even for the same
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
country-for Japan and Italy, for example-with some studies pointing to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
higher life expectancy for SE than for PE retirement pensioners while
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
others argue the opposite. In Spain, LE65 is slightly higher for the SE
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
than for PE workers when retirement pensioners. For 2005-2010, a gap in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
life expectancy of 0.23 years between SE and PE retirement pensioners is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
observed. This widens to 0.55 years for 2014-2018. A similar trend can
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be seen if pension income groups are considered. For 2005-2010, the gap
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in LE65 between pensioners in the lowest and highest income groups is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.20 years. This widens over time and reaches 1.51 years for 2014-2018.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Although these differences are relatively small, they are statistically
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significant. According to our research, the implications for policy on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social security are evident: differences in life expectancy by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
socioeconomic status and pension regime should be taken into account for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a variety of issues involving social security schemes. These include
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishing the age of eligibility for retirement pensions and early
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
access to benefits, computing the annuity factors used to determine
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
initial retirement benefits and valuing the liabilities taken on for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
retirement pensioners.'
