abstract: 'Background: Work, rather than unemployment, is recognised as being good
for health, but there may be an age when the benefits are outweighed by
adverse impacts. As countries around the world increase their typical
retirement age, the potential effect on population health and health
inequalities requires scrutiny. Methods: We carried out a systematic
review of literature published since 2011 from developed countries on
the health effects of employment in those over 64years of age. We
completed a narrative synthesis and used harvest plots to map the
direction and volume of evidence for the outcomes reported. We followed
the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) checklist
in our methods and reporting. Results: We identified seventeen relevant
studies, which were of cohort or cross-sectional design. The results
indicate evidence of beneficial or neutral effects from extended working
on overall health status and physical health for many employees, and
mixed effects on mental health. The benefits reported however, are most
likely to be for males, those working part-time or reducing to
part-time, and employees in jobs which are not low quality or low
reward. Conclusions: Extending working life (particularly part time) may
have benefits or a neutral effect for some, but adverse effects for
others in high demand or low reward jobs. There is the potential for
widening health inequalities between those who can choose to reduce
their working hours, and those who need to continue working full time
for financial reasons. There is a lack of evidence for effects on
quality of life, and a dearth of interventions enabling older workers to
extend their healthy working life.'
