- 1. Senior Women ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201500114316Description:
This chapter of Women in Canada examines many aspects related to senior women in Canada including their socio-demographic characteristics, life expectancy, living arrangements, social participation, Internet use, health, assistance with daily living and leading causes of death, as well as economic characteristics including their labour force participation and income. The focus will be on recent patterns, with discussion of historical trends where appropriate, including selected analysis by ethnocultural diversity and geographic region.
Release date: 2016-03-30 - 2. Senior women ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201000111441Geography: CanadaDescription:
This chapter, entitled Senior Women, provides an overview of the situation of senior women in the population, analyzed from an historical perspective when applicable. We will examine their sociodemographic characteristics, including life expectancy, diversity, and family situation. Various factors are also associated with this population's well-being, such as social life, economic situation and health; we will therefore explore social networks and subjective well-being, volunteering, and the most recent trends in the labour force participation and income of senior women. Finally, we will present the most prevalent chronic health conditions in senior women, their lifestyle habits, the formal and informal care to which they have access, and the causes of death.
Release date: 2011-07-26 - 3. Post-retirement employment ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200510913150Geography: CanadaDescription:
The likelihood of returning to paid employment after retirement is influenced by various factors. Although most retirees rejoin the workforce for financial reasons, non-financial considerations are also important. Many in the study who worked full time prior to retirement chose to return on a part-time basis - over one-third of the men and more than half of the women.
Release date: 2005-12-22 - Articles and reports: 11-008-X20040037731Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article explores whether those who are forced to retire have had adequate opportunity to prepare for retirement, either financially or psychologically. It uses new information from the 2002 General Social Survey (GSS) to examine the match between the retirement preferences and experiences of people who retired during the period from 1992 to 2002.
Release date: 2004-12-07 - 5. Retaining older workers ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200411013129Geography: CanadaDescription:
As a large number of people near the traditional retirement age, what are the social and economic consequences of a mass exit from the labour force? Would older workers remain on the job if mandatory retirement policies were eliminated or if, for example, incentives such as part-time work or more vacation leave were offered?
