An Integrated Approach to the Timing of Retirement: Life Cycle, Labour Force Heterogeneity, Financial Status and Public Support

该项目将产生关于家庭退休时间决策的新知识。通过改进体制设计和政策制定，将产生国家利益，这反过来又将促进有利于提高成熟年龄参与率的劳动力市场。该项目涉及多个机构的合作，并将通过培训博士和研究助理来促进研究专业知识的发展，为老龄化综合研究创造一个关键的门槛。这将促进在这一重要领域的世界级存在，从而直接为“老龄化健康，老龄化高效”的国家研究重点做出贡献。

This project will generate new knowledge on household decision making over retirement timing. National benefits will be generated through improved institutional design and policy formulation, which in turn will promote a labour market conducive to increased mature-age participation. The project involves collaboration across several institutions and will contribute to the development of research expertise through the training of PhDs and research assistants, creating a critical threshold of integrated research into ageing. This will facilitate a world-class presence in this important domain, thus contributing directly to the National Research Priority of Ageing Well, Ageing Productively.
