Retirement and Informal Care-giving: Behavioral Patterns among Older Workers JRC Working Papers in Economics and Finance, 2017/8

cover
This paper uses panel data from the Survey of Health, Aging and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) to study the effect of care-giving on retirement. The findings suggest that care- and support-giving contributes to the retirement decision, in particular for men. While the frequency of care activities is more influential in the male retirement decision, the most important factor for women turns out to be out-of-household care.
