Abstract

This talk examines the impact of retirement on individual well-being. Drawing on large-scale longitudinal studies from multiple countries, the presentation demonstrates that retirement experiences are heterogeneous and highlights how individual, family, work, and health factors shape retirement adjustment. The talk further explores bridge employment and post-retirement work, establishing a multilevel framework that explains why some retirees continue working after retirement. The presentation concludes with evidence-based recommendations for policy makers, organizations, and individuals to promote successful aging, psychological well-being, and meaningful engagement throughout the retirement transition.
