"Most European countries have experienced labour market reforms at varying times leading to extended working life and a postponement of retirement age. This book provides a gender perspective on the impact of extended working life on the different dimensions of well-being, the factors which can limit extended working life, and the working conditions of older workers. It will be of interest to all scholars and students of social policy, sociology, gender studies and labour studies more broadly"-- Provided by publisher.
