The study reported on here examines the processes involved in individual decision-making around retirement, the existence of group norms about working after State Pension Age, and the relative importance of ‘push’ and ‘pull’ factors. The research also addresses the ways in which policy could support individual choices about employment in later life, and identifies a number of distinctive subgroups within the older population who would benefit from targeted policy support.
