Retirement a dying concept?


The graph shows the proportion of the adult population leaving the labour market in Q2 2009 –Source: ONS. It is taken from a discussion paper published by the ILC-UK called “The Future of Retirement.”

Certainly worth a quick read, if for no other purpose to illustrate how complex and multi-dimensional the term ‘retirement’ has become. It will be interesting to see what this graph looks like in 2015. I would think that it will have shifted dramatically to the right. Dick Stroud
