AnnotationThe meaning of retirement is usually bound up with the receipt of a pension. This paper uses the available evidence to discuss the evolution of retirement in the UK, and the implications for employment and pensions policy. It seeks to document some of the real paths to retirement that people experience today and are likely to experience in the future. It discusses the reasons behind individual retirement decisions, and the emergence of "gradual retirement" and semi-retirement". Also discussed are whether changes in retirement ages tell us anything about the prospect of extending working lives, and future trends in retirement for individuals and society. (RH).
