abstract: 'There is much research about those who exit the labour market
|
|
|
|
prematurely, however, comparatively little is known about people working
|
|
|
|
longer and about their employment and working conditions. In this paper,
|
|
|
|
we describe the employment and working conditions of men and women
|
|
|
|
working between 65 and 80 years, and compare them with previous
|
|
|
|
conditions of those retired in the same age group. Analyses are based on
|
|
|
|
wave 4 data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe
|
|
|
|
(SHARE) with information collected between 2009 and 2011 from 17,625
|
|
|
|
older men and women across 16 European countries. Besides
|
|
|
|
socio-demographic and health-related factors (physical and mental
|
|
|
|
health), the focus lies on employment conditions (e.g. employment
|
|
|
|
status, occupational position and working hours) and on stressful
|
|
|
|
working conditions, measured in terms of low control at work and
|
|
|
|
effort-reward imbalance. In case of retired people, information on
|
|
|
|
working conditions refer to the last job before retirement. Following
|
|
|
|
descriptive analyses, we then conduct multivariable analyses and
|
|
|
|
investigate how working conditions and poor health are related to labour
|
|
|
|
market participation (i.e. random intercept models accounting for
|
|
|
|
country affiliation and adjusted for potential confounders). Results
|
|
|
|
illustrate that people working between the ages of 65 and 80 are more
|
|
|
|
likely to be self-employed (either with or without employees) and work
|
|
|
|
in advantaged occupational positions. Furthermore, findings reveal that
|
|
|
|
psychosocial working conditions are generally better than the conditions
|
|
|
|
retired respondents had in their last job. Finally, in contrast to those
|
|
|
|
who work, health tends to be worse among retired people. In conclusion,
|
|
|
|
findings deliver empirical evidence that paid employment beyond age 65
|
|
|
|
is more common among self-employed workers throughout Europe, in
|
|
|
|
advantaged occupations and under-favourable psychosocial circumstances,
|
|
|
|
and that this group of workers are in considerably good mental and
|
|
|
|
physical health. This highlights that policies aimed at increasing the
|
|
|
|
state pension age beyond the age of 65 years put pressure on specific
|
|
|
|
disadvantaged groups of men and women.'
