Labour Force Participation Rates of Older Persons: An International Comparison.
Clark, Robert L.; Anker, Richard
International Labour Review, v129 n2 p255-71 1990
Using data from 151 countries, labor force participation of older men and women was analyzed and related to economic, demographic, and policy variables. Reduced participation rates are related to increased income levels, structural changes, social security programs, and, for men, the ratio of older persons to persons of standard working age. (SK)
