Firms' contribution to the internal and external employability of older employees: evidence from Germany (2015)
Zitatform
Tisch, Anita (2015): Firms' contribution to the internal and external employability of older employees. Evidence from Germany. In: European journal of ageing, Jg. 12, H. 1, S. 29-38., 2014-09-26. DOI:10.1007/s10433-014-0323-y
Abstract
"In the examination of older employees' employability, one can distinguish between internal and external employability. Internal employability can be measured by individual employment stability, and external employability occurs when employees replace one employment relationship with another. Most studies focus on the personal skills and characteristics that are necessary to maintain employability. However, external factors also contribute to individual employability. Therefore, this study examines which organisational attributes of firms contribute to older employees' employability in Germany. Taking firm and individual characteristics into account, the results of discrete-time survival models show that in specific organisational structures, older employees have higher internal employability. Accordingly, older employees are more likely to maintain employment in the service sector and in recruiting organisations facing (skilled) labour shortages. However, the results also indicate that financially investing organisations facilitate early labour market exits. With regard to older employees' external employability, the results show only little evidence indicating an association between organisational attributes of firms and the likelihood of job change."

Are public sector workers different?: cross-European evidence from elderly workers and retirees (2015)
Zitatform
Tonin, Mirco & Michael Vlassopoulos (2015): Are public sector workers different? Cross-European evidence from elderly workers and retirees. In: IZA journal of labor economics, Jg. 4, S. 1-21. DOI:10.1186/s40172-015-0027-3
Abstract
"The public sector employs a large share of the labor force to execute important functions (e.g. regulation and public good provision) in an environment beset by severe agency problems. Attracting workers who are motivated to serve the public interest is important to mitigate these problems. We investigate whether public and private sector employees differ in terms of their public service motivation, as measured by their propensity to volunteer, using a representative sample of elderly workers from 12 European countries. To overcome potential identification difficulties related to unobservable differences in working conditions (e.g. working time, required effort, job security, career incentives), we also look at retired workers. We find that public sector workers, both those currently employed and those already retired, are significantly more prosocial; however, the difference in prosociality is explained by differences in the composition of the workforce across the two sectors, in terms of (former) workers' education and occupation. Looking across industries and within occupations, we find that former public sector workers in education are more motivated, while there are no differences across the two sectors when considering broad occupational categories. We also investigate other dimensions and find no differences in terms of trust, while there is evidence of some differences in risk aversion, political preferences, life and job satisfaction."

How have employment transitions for older workers in Germany and the UK changed (2015)
Wright, David;Zitatform
Wright, David (2015): How have employment transitions for older workers in Germany and the UK changed. (SOEPpapers on multidisciplinary panel data research at DIW Berlin 782), Berlin, 19 S.
Abstract
"Extending working life is an objective for many nations. However, the UK government has recently reported only modest improvement 'compared to many nations'. A comparison of European, Labour Force Surveys show that Germany has reversed early retirement much faster than the UK since 2003. This was not forecast by previous researchers. In particular, Ebbinghaus' influential cross-national analysis of early retirement, published in 2006, had predicted that liberal welfare states regimes like the UK would react faster than conservative ones like Germany. A review of changes to pensions and employment policies suggests the UK puts more emphasis on recruitment of older workers, flexible working and gradual retirement while Germany puts more emphasis on retention of older workers through age-management and employment protection. The paper compares the employment transitions of older workers using data covering 1993 to 2013 from the longitudinal surveys British Household Panel Survey, Understanding Society and the German Socio-Economic Panel. It finds little evidence for the recruitment of older workers or gradual retirement in either the UK or Germany and concludes it was the greater employment protection for older workers in Germany that enabled the employment rate for older workers to increase even during the recent recession."

Cash-on-hand and the duration of job search: quasi-experimental evidence from Norway (2014)

Abstract
"We identify the causal effect of lump-sum severance payments on non-employment duration in Norway by exploiting a discontinuity in eligibility at age 50. We find that a severance payment worth 1.2 months' earnings at the median lowers the fraction re-employed after a year by seven percentage points. Data on household wealth enable us to verify that the effect is decreasing in prior wealth, which favors an interpretation as liquidity constraints over the alternative of mental accounting. Finding liquidity constraints in Norway, despite its equitable wealth distribution and generous welfare state, means they are likely to exist also in other countries."

The effect of wealth and earned income on the decision to retire: a dynamic probit examination of retirement (2014)

Bender, Keith A., Kostas Mavromaras, Ioannis Theodossiou & Zhang Wei (2014): The effect of wealth and earned income on the decision to retire. A dynamic probit examination of retirement. (IZA discussion paper 7927), Bonn, 30 S.
Abstract
"This paper estimates the propensity to retire and the persistence of remaining retired once the decision to retire has been made in the US labour market, using a dynamic panel probit model. The estimated income effect of higher housing wealth is virtually zero and that of financial assets wealth is positive, increasing the retirement probability. The substitution effect of earned income is negative, thus decreasing the retirement probability. The retirement decision is strongly state persistent for up to three years after the initial retirement decision and the state persistence of retirement is reinforced by wealth and earned income."

Abstract
"Despite growing interest in the aging of the workforce, few investigations have explored a key aspect of diversity among older workers: whether or not they consider themselves retired. Using a sample of workers ages 50 and older from the National Study of the Changing Workforce (2008), we apply career development theory and the job demand - control( - support) framework to investigate potential differences between working retirees (i.e. employed older adults 50+ who consider themselves retired) and working non-retirees (i.e. employed older adults 50+ who do not consider themselves retired) in terms of their job characteristics (i.e. demands, control, support) and how these job characteristics are related to job satisfaction. We find that working retirees report lower job demands and higher social support, and that there is limited evidence for the buffering hypothesis. Implications for researchers and employers are discussed." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Ältere auf dem Arbeitsmarkt in Schleswig-Holstein (2014)
Zitatform
Buch, Tanja, Volker Kotte, Annekatrin Niebuhr & Andrea Stöckmann (2014): Ältere auf dem Arbeitsmarkt in Schleswig-Holstein. (IAB-Regional. Berichte und Analysen aus dem Regionalen Forschungsnetz. IAB Nord 05/2014), Nürnberg, 71 S.
Abstract
"Die Arbeitsmarktsituation älterer Erwerbspersonen ist in den vergangenen Jahren stärker in den Fokus der Arbeitsmarktakteure in Deutschland und Schleswig-Holstein gerückt. Aufgrund der fortschreitenden Alterung der Erwerbsbevölkerung nimmt die Bedeutung dieser Altersgruppe für den Arbeitsmarkt erheblich zu. Wegen des zu erwartenden Rückgangs des Arbeitsangebots steigt zudem das Interesse der Unternehmen an den älteren Arbeitskräften. Durch die Festlegung der institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen nimmt nicht zuletzt auch die Politik wesentlichen Einfluss auf die Arbeitsmarktpartizipation Älterer und die Integration dieser Altersgruppe in den Arbeitsmarkt. In den vergangenen Jahren hat sich die Lage der älteren Arbeitskräfte in Schleswig-Holstein parallel zum umfassenden Wandel der demografischen und institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen - und möglicherweise ausgelöst durch sie - erkennbar verbessert. Die Beschäftigung der 55- bis 64-Jährigen ist in Schleswig-Holstein seit dem Jahr 2000 stark gewachsen und parallel dazu beobachten wir einen deutlichen Rückgang der Arbeitslosigkeit und der Unterbeschäftigung in dieser Altersgruppe. Diese Entwicklungen sind vor dem Hintergrund der deutlich gestiegenen Erwerbsbeteiligung Älterer zu sehen. Demografische Aspekte spielen bis dato dagegen kaum eine Rolle. Als nach wie vor problematisch stellen sich die Wiederbeschäftigungschancen älterer Arbeitsloser dar. Das Risiko, arbeitslos zu werden, ist für Ältere zwar relativ gering, eine geringe Abgangswahrscheinlichkeit hat jedoch zur Folge, dass sich die Arbeitslosigkeit bei Älteren als außerordentlich persistent erweist. Dies spiegelt sich nicht zuletzt im hohen Anteil Langzeitarbeitsloser in dieser Altersgruppe wider. Angesichts der bevorstehenden demografischen Herausforderungen wie auch der anhaltenden Debatte um Fachkräfteengpässe sind Politik, Arbeitsverwaltung und Betriebe gefordert, die Weiter- und Wiederbeschäftigung Älterer stärker als bisher durch Qualifizierungsmaßnahmen zu fördern. Dies gilt insbesondere auch für die Teilgruppe der 60- bis 64-Jährigen, für die Erfolge bei der Arbeitsmarktintegration bislang noch deutlich hinter jenen für die Gruppe der 55- bis 59-Jährigen zurückbleiben."

Exploring women's retirement: continuity, context and career transition (2014)

Duberley, Joanne, Fiona Carmichael & Isabelle Szmigin (2014): Exploring women's retirement: continuity, context and career transition. In: Gender, Work and Organization, Jg. 21, H. 1, S. 71-90. DOI:10.1111/gwao.12013
Abstract
"This paper reports on an exploratory study examining women's views about and experiences of retirement. It has long been recognized that women's careers often follow a different path than men's due to the differential impact of family and domestic responsibilities and their relative underrepresentation at higher levels of organizations. However, many studies of retirement have implicitly assumed a conventional male career as the norm, where retirement is seen as marking a neat ending to continuous employment. This paper aims to present a richer understanding of women's retirement, utilizing contextual national data and qualitative analysis. The paper begins with a brief summary of literature looking at women's career development. We then explore the concept of retirement and consider current literature with regard to women's retirement. Following a brief discussion of our research approach, we provide some national context using quantitative data. We then discuss the qualitative findings, examining the areas of continuity and change that women experienced in retirement and exploring the factors that they felt enabled and constrained them."

Abstract
"Due to the graying of the global labor markets, post-retirement employment is becoming increasingly important in the 21st century. To better understand older people's decisions to engage in post-retirement employment, the current study investigated the role of the psychological experience of aging. Two dimensions that capture positive aging experience (i.e., personal growth and gaining self-knowledge) and two dimensions that capture negative aging experience (i.e., physical loss and social loss) were differentiated and their relations to post-retirement employment were hypothesized. We argue that aging experience may influence the decision to work after retirement by generating both, approach and avoidance responses. Longitudinal data from the German Aging Survey (N = 551) were used to test the hypotheses. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that retirees who experienced aging as social loss and as personal growth were more likely to engage in post-retirement employment a decade later, while retirees who experienced aging as gaining self-knowledge were less likely to engage in post-retirement employment. Theoretical and practical implications of this study are discussed." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"Wir quantifizieren die Differenz im Renteneintrittsalter zwischen Individuen, die sich hinsichtlich des Grades der physischen Arbeitsbelastung in ihrem Beruf unterscheiden. Diskrete Verweildauermodelle deuten auf substantielle Unterschiede im Renteneintrittsalter zwischen diesen Gruppen hin. Wir evaluieren die Differenz hinsichtlich der Frage, inwiefern prädeterminierte Umstände in der Kindheit über den Kanal der Selektion in physisch anspruchsvolle Berufe auf das Renteneintrittsalter wirken. Um Unterschiede zu separieren, die durch prädeterminierte Umstände auf der einen Seite und durch individuelle Entscheidungen oder Zufall auf der anderen Seite hervorgerufen wurden, testen wir auf stochastische Dominanz für ausgewählte prädeterminierte Kriterien und führen eine Blinder-Oaxaca-Zerlegung durch. Die Ergebnisse implizieren, dass prädeterminierte individuelle Charakteristika etwa ein Drittel der Differenz im Renteneintrittsalter erklären, welche über den Kanal des physischen Anspruchs der Beschäftigung transportiert wird."

Why is old workers' labor market more volatile?: unemployment fluctuations over the life-cycle (2014)

Hairault, Jean-Olivier, François Langot & Thepthida Sopraseuth (2014): Why is old workers' labor market more volatile? Unemployment fluctuations over the life-cycle. (IZA discussion paper 8076), Bonn, 59 S.
Abstract
"Since the last recession, it is usually argued that older workers are less affected by the economic downturn because their unemployment rate rose less than the one of prime-age workers. This view is a myth: older workers are more sensitive to the business cycle. We document volatilities of worker flows and hourly wage across age groups on CPS data. We find that old worker's job flows are characterized by a higher responsiveness to business cycles than their younger counterparts. In contrast, their wage cyclicality is lower than prime age workers'. Beyond this empirical contribution, we show that a life-cycle Mortensen & Pissarides (1994) model is well suited to explain these facts: older workers' shorter work-life expectancy endogenously reduces their outside options and leads their wages to be less sensitive to the business cycle. Thus, in a market where wage adjustments are small, quantities vary a lot: this is the case for older workers, whereas the youngest behave like infinitively-lived agents. Our theoretical results point out that Shimer (2005)'s view on the MP model is consistent with prime-age workers' labor market while aging endogenously introduces real wage rigidities, allowing to match what we observe for old workers, without specific assumptions as in Hagendorn & Manovskii (2008)."

Instead of bowling alone?: unretirement of pensioners in Sweden (2014)

Pettersen, Jan (2014): Instead of bowling alone? Unretirement of pensioners in Sweden. In: International Journal of Manpower, Jg. 35, H. 7, S. 1016-1037. DOI:10.1108/IJM-09-2012-0136
Abstract
"Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to study the re-entry to the workforce of fully retired persons (unretirement) and whether the decision to resume work depends primarily on social or economic reasons.
Design/methodology/approach - Using Swedish register data for already retired individuals older than 55, the incidence of unretirement is studied. Determinant factors behind the decision to re-enter the labor force is analyzed in a binary response logit model.
Findings - Unretirement varies between 6 and 14 percent under two different definitions. We find support for higher pension income to decrease the probability to unretire. Other determinants, such as marital status, largely support an interpretation that unretirement is a life-style decision rather than a response to an experienced negative economic situation post retirement.
Research limitations/implications - Due to data limitations, the focus in this study is on the extensive margin (the event of returning to the labor force) and not on hours of work post re-entry.
Social implications - If older persons that are physically able to work also want to work and succeed in finding work when they demand so, unretirement is welfare enhancing. However, if unretirement is an effect of unexpected realizations post retirement, any increase in the number of persons facing such unexpected shocks implies an increase in the uncertainty of life as retired.
Originality/value - Research on unretirement is scarce and has previously been performed exclusively on US survey data. Knowing the determinants of unretirement is important to know if and how incentives to unretire should be designed." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en)) -

Abstract
"Seit Ende 2011 erlaubt die Beschäftigtenstatistik eine Gegenüberstellung von formaler Qualifikation der Beschäftigten und Anforderungsniveau der ausgeübten Tätigkeit. Demnach waren im Jahr 2012 rund 63 Prozent aller Arbeitnehmer in Deutschland ausbildungsadäquat beschäftigt. Dagegen waren 22 Prozent formal unterqualifiziert und 15 Prozent überqualifiziert. Bei Letzteren ist der Berufsabschluss höher als es ihre Tätigkeit erfordert - sie stehen im Fokus dieses Berichts. Zu formaler Überqualifizierung kann es kommen, wenn bestimmte Qualifikationen zu wenig nachgefragt werden, aber auch infolge besserer Bezahlung oder Arbeitsbedingungen. Deshalb, und weil Arbeitsuchende nicht unbegrenzt mobil sind, spielen regionale Beschäftigungs- und Verdienstmöglichkeiten eine wichtige Rolle bei der Entstehung dieser Form von ausbildungsinadäquater Beschäftigung."

Work-related factors as predictors in the retirement decision-making process of older workers in the Netherlands (2014)

Abstract
"This article examines work-related factors and their impact on the retirement decision-making process. We particularly focus on organisational human resources policies and normative climate regarding retirement. Organisations create opportunities and conditions for career extension via their personnel instruments. The normative climate may encourage or discourage retirement. We use a ten-year follow-up study among 1,458 older employees in the Netherlands aged 50 - 59 at baseline. Results reveal that older workers are sensitive to social approval earned from their co-workers and supervisor. A social climate that supports working up to higher ages is an important requisite for reducing the attractiveness of the early retirement option. Retirement intentions, formed in the years prior to retirement, are shaped by workplace norms and supervisors' attitudes. Results indicate that in order to delay retirement, policy initiatives cannot be reduced to altering financial restrictions surrounding retirement but need to address the forces at the organisational level that channel workers out of employment."

Stich, David & Moritz Hess (2014): Renteneintritt und Hausarbeit. (SOEPpapers on multidisciplinary panel data research at DIW Berlin 683), Berlin, 22 S.
Abstract
"Dieses Papier untersucht wie sich der Renteneintritt eines Partners auf die Verteilung der Hausarbeit in Paaren auswirkt. Zur Erklärung wie Hausarbeit zwischen den Partner verteilt wird, gibt es zwei Theoriestränge. Die ökonomischen Theorien gehen davon aus, dass der- oder diejenige der Partner, welcher am Arbeitsmarkt weniger Geld verdient, mehr Hausarbeit übernehmen wird unabhängig von seinem oder ihrem Geschlecht. Die normbasierten Theorien hingegen basieren auf Werten und Vorstellungen. In konservativen Paaren übernehmen Frauen den Haushalt, während Paare mit modernen Vorstellungen die Hausarbeit egalitärere verteilen. Aufbauend auf den ökonomischen und normbasierten Theorien lassen sich in Bezug auf den Renteneintritt dazu zwei gegensätzliche Hypothesen aufstellen. 1) Mit dem Renteneintritt verändert sich die Verteilung der Hausarbeit nicht. 2) Diejenige Person, welche in Rente geht, übernimmt einen größeren Anteil der Hausarbeit. Diese Hypothesen werden mit Fixed-Effects Modellen und Daten des SOEP getestet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass sowohl Männer wie auch Frauen nach der Verrentung mehr Zeit für Hausarbeit aufwenden, als dies in der Erwerbsphase der Fall ist." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

Abstract
"Das Handlungsmodell der Selektion, Optimierung und Kompensation (SOK) hat sich als ein wichtiger Ansatz zum Verständnis der Bewältigung von alters- und alternsbedingten Veränderungen bei Beschäftigten an ihrem Arbeitsplatz herausgestellt. Bislang konnte die Forschung zeigen, dass Beschäftigte mit häufigen SOK-Strategien in der Arbeit erfolgreiches Altern am Arbeitsplatz berichten. Gleichwohl sind die verantwortlichen Arbeitsbedingungen für eine erfolgreiche SOK-Anwendung unzureichend beleuchtet. Unsere Studie untersuchte die direkten und indirekten Effekte für das Engagement in der Arbeit durch die Anwendung von SOK-Handlungsweisen am Arbeitsplatz sowie durch zwei zentrale Ressourcen der Arbeit: Lern- und Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten sowie Autonomie im Job. Diese Informationen wurden mittels eines Fragebogen erfasst, anhand standardisierter Skalen. Die Untersuchungsgruppe waren N = 118 Flugbegleiter verschiedener deutscher und österreichischer Airlines. Die vermehrte Anwendung von SOK Strategien ging mit höherem Arbeitsengagement einher (r = 0.28, p < 0.05). Lern- und Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten in der Arbeit (r = 0.35, p < 0.01) und Autonomie (r = 0.31, p < 0.01) waren gleichfalls mit mehr Arbeitsengagement assoziiert. Anhand von Mediationsanalysen fanden wir, dass der positive Effekt der Arbeitsressourcen für das Engagement in der Arbeit durch die Anwendung von SOK Strategien teilweise vermittelt wurde. Unsere Ergebnisse demonstrieren, dass sowohl die Anwendung von alternsgünstigen Handlungsstrategien als auch die erweiterte Ressourcen der Arbeit positiv für das Engagement in der Arbeit sind. Der Beitrag schließt mit Empfehlungen für eine weitere theoretische Erforschung des Themas wie auch potentielle praktische Konsequenzen aus den Ergebnissen für eine alternsgünstige Arbeitsgestaltung."

Abstract
"In times of rising longevity and shortage of skilled workers, post-retirement work has become increasingly prevalent in many countries. However, not much is known about the expectations and facilitating factors associated with work-related activities after retirement. In two studies we draw on the social cognitive career theory and investigated the role of outcome expectations and facilitating factors in post-retirement career planning. First, we interviewed 22 older employees and subject matter experts in a German aerospace company to learn more about expectations of post-retirement work and its facilitating factors to build a theoretical model. Second, to test our theoretical model, 212 employees of the same company aged 50 to 65 completed a web-based survey. Results showed that outcome expectations and the facilitating factors identified in the interview study were significantly related to post-retirement career intention. Further, the facilitating factor social approval moderated the relationship between outcome expectations and post-retirement career intention. We discuss implications of our findings in terms of how they inform retirement counselors, organizations, and society to help increase engagement in work-related activities after retirement."

Aranki, Ted & Corrado Macchiarelli (2013): Employment duration and shifts into retirement in the EU. (European Central Bank. Working paper series 1517), Frankfurt, M., 34 S.
Abstract
"The decision to cease working is traditionally influenced by a wide set of socio-economic and environmental variables. In this paper, we study transitions out of work for 26 EU countries over the period 2004-2009 in order to investigate the determinants of retirement based on the Eurostat Survey on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC). Applying standard survivor analysis tools to describe exits into retirement, we do not find any significant differences in the patterns into retirement between the average euro area and EU non-euro area countries. Moreover, we find that shifts into retirement have increased during the onset of the 2009 economic and financial crisis. Income, together with flexible working arrangements, is found to be important as regards early retirement decisions, compared to retiring beyond the legal retirement age. Finally, we show that institutional measures (such as, state/health benefits, minimum retirement age) could not be sufficient alone if individuals withdraw earlier from the labour market due to a weakening of their health. Especially, these latter results are of importance for structural and macroeconomic policy, for instance, in increasing the employment of both people and hours worked against the background of population ageing."

Becoming a grandparent and early retirement in Europe (2013)

Abstract
"Given that the funding of pensions is at issue, governments across Europe now try to discourage early retirement. Yet, international research about the determinants of early retirement based on appropriate micro-data is scarce. In addition, studies have tended to look at the retiring generation in an isolated way, ignoring the intergenerational ties that may play a role in their retirement decision. This article uses the European Social Survey, covering 22 countries from all regions of Europe, to investigate to what extent becoming a grandparent affects early retirement in European countries. We apply multilevel event history modelling to data from the third round of the European Social Survey and from the MULTILINKS database on intergenerational policy indicators. We find that becoming a grandparent speeds up retirement, especially at the round ages of 55 and 60 years. However, the effect is statistically significant only for women, not for men. We discuss differences between countries, including the role played by differences in formal childcare provisions." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
