Abstract: Population ageing and pressures on public
finances has resulted in government pressing the
extension of working lives. The economic crisis has
meant that some people feel they cannot afford to
retire but also that many employers are cutting back
on their workforces.
In the decade before the crisis, “post-retirement-age
workers” constituted the fastest growing group in the
UK workforce. Cross-sectional and longitudinal data
from the labour force survey (LFS) is used to
investigate the working patterns, occupations and
earnings of such workers, to compare those who
changed job as they approached retirement age with
those who stayed in the same job, and to look at the
process of transition from one job or employer to
another. Data from a representative sample of
establishments is used for a complementary
examination of employer practices. Of interest is how
applications to continue working are treated and how
those who are employed are hired.
It is clear that those who work beyond retirement age
are very different from other workers. There is a
much higher incidence of non-standard working
among the former group, even if most postretirement-age workers seem to be working on a nonstandard basis voluntarily and not involuntarily. Postretirement-age workers are to be found at the top of
the occupational hierarchy. However, they are
concentrated disproportionately at the bottom.
Whether post-retirement-age working will continue to
grow as the recession bites further is an open
question.

The format is a panel of three speakers, each
presenting from a different research/disciplinary
perspective, followed by open discussion with the
audience. The aim is to create links across
departments among researchers with an interest in
the use of parenting programmes as social policy
interventions. Mairi-Ann Cullen will be presenting
issues raised by the findings from CEDAR’s national
evaluation of the Parenting Early Intervention
Programme and Roger Leng from the Law School will
be talking about the issues raised by the use of
Parenting Orders as a criminal sanction. The third
speaker is unconfirmed but will be another researcher
taking a different perspective.
