The UK has an ageing population, which offers both challenges and opportunities for individuals, businesses and the economy. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) publication ‘Fuller Working Lives: a framework for action’ outlined the background evidence around later life working and retirement and set out a number of actions to help people have fuller working lives. To build on the framework and fill some key evidence gaps, this research was commissioned to explore older people’s attitudes to later life working and retirement. The research [undertaken by YouGov PLC] explores the attitudes of those who are currently employed, self-employed, and unemployed to later life working and retirement. It also explores the attitudes and reflections of those who are currently retired to the circumstances surrounding retirement and later life working.
