Numerous researchers acknowledge that the occupational pension protects employees. However, in China, the total cost of occupational pensions is shared between employees and employers, representing a significant financial commitment. This study aimed to explore the effect of the occupational...

This study aimed to estimate the work capacity of older Indonesians based on their health condition and other characteristics. Two analytic methods were used in this analysis-the Milligan-Wise method and the Cutler-Meara- Richards-Shubik method-and they found relatively small and substantial...

This study documents increased intergenerational support for elderly parents in China among adults who were exposed to the "Later, Longer, Fewer" (LLF) family planning campaign in the 1970s. Using the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, we identify adults of childbearing age whose...

We examine the labour market, welfare receipt and health effects of a reform to the Irish State Pension system which increased the age at which some workers could claim a State Pension. We use longitudinal data on ageing in Ireland and a causal identification strategy based on the random date of...

I study how delayed retirements reshape firms internal labor markets, leveraging a German reform that raised womens early retirement age by at least three years. The reform increased retention of older women and reduced both internal promotions and external hiring of younger coworkers, with the...

This paper analyzes the effects of an unfunded pension system on economic growth using an extended overlapping generations model to include the informal sector. Emerging countries usually have a more significant informal sector than advanced ones. The findings based on the Thai economy data...

Using a standard macro model with overlapping generations in the manner of Blanchard–Yaari, we show that by broadening the labour supply on the extensive margin through longevity adjustment of the statutory retirement age, labour supply is likely to decrease on the intensive margin. However,...

This paper studies how labor demand factors - specifically worker substitutability and job‑specific skills - shape employment responses to a rise in the early retirement age. Using a regression discontinuity design, I exploit a 1999 German reform that eliminated the option for women to retire...

Population ageing is an irreversible global trend (United Nations, 2023). The global population of people aged 65 years and older is forecast to rise from 10% in 2022 to 16% by 2050. As a result, many older tourists who have large amounts of discretionary time and money at their disposal want to...

I quantify the implications of projected natural population ageing for the value of the New Zealand aggregate human capital stock, using the Jorgenson/Fraumeni framework and Mincer equations. Using the framework, I compare quantitatively the impact of natural population ageing with that of other...

Objective: The article aims to identify and assess factors influencing the development of entrepreneurs' businesses after the age of 50, with particular emphasis on firm age, entrepreneurial motivations, and support from the environment. Research Design & Methods: We gathered data through a...

This study focused on integrating digital methodologies in personnel selection processes and explored the psychometric properties of virtual assessment centers as alternatives to traditional ones. We evaluated the validity of a virtual application of an assessment center and its fairness in...

Objectives: This study explores how academic literature addresses the professional inclusion of older adults in the workforce. It investigates emerging patterns and proposed solutions to support later‑life employment in the context of demographic ageing and the active ageing policy paradigm....

We use partial life expectancy to show the existence in the UK of an asymmetric relationship between life span and health span in five-year age brackets over the life course. Using comparable data from other advanced economies, we investigate why years of improvement in life expectancy after...

Financial inclusion refers to expanding access to and use of financial services among traditionally excluded groups including low-income households, microenterprises, the elderly, and women. Digital financial inclusion helps advance financial inclusion by deploying digital financial services...
