A Work-Filled Retirement: Workers’ Changing Views on Employment and Leisure-Full Report

2005-08-16

A new national Work Trends survey finds that nearly 7 in 10 American workers plan to continue to work full- or part-time for pay following retirement from their main job. Another 14% plan to work as volunteers, while only 13% expect to stop working entirely. The report, based on a poll of 800 American workers conducted between May and mid-June 2005, also finds that older workers believe they are treated unfairly by employers, and also raises workers’ concerns about the financial soundness of Social Security and Medicare.
