abstract: 'This article shows how late-life incomes from work and pensions evolved
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the United Kingdom between 1991 and 2007, the year the Great
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recession began. Our main contribution comes from focusing on changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
across cohorts in different educational groups while also considering
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the gender divide. Our statistical analyses based on the British
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Household Panel Survey (BHPS) suggest that deindustrialisation, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
expansion of jobs in the knowledge economy and pension reforms affected
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
senior workers'' incomes before and after retirement. Highly qualified
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
senior male workers have profited from increasing income across the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cohorts more than any other social group. Such a trend is not observed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
among highly qualified female workers. Male and female low-qualified
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
senior workers do not show major income loses, but have not benefited to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the same extent as highly educated male workers. As a result, pension
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income inequalities between highly qualified men and the rest have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
increased. The increasing pensions gap between educational groups can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
traced back to the improving situation on the labour market for highly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
qualified male workers, and to reforms benefiting private pension
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
schemes, where the highly qualified are overrepresented. Thus, the shift
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in pension provisions towards private pension schemes is clearly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disadvantageous for low-qualified male workers and for women of all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
educational levels, and contributes to the increase of social
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequalities.'
