Retirement Survey, 1994

The 1994 Retirement Survey is the second wave of a panel survey designed to examine issues surrounding the transition to retirement. The panel nature of the Retirement Survey data provides a unique insight into the behaviour of this group of people at and around retirement age. The issues examined include those associated with retirement behaviour, health, incomes, pensions, assets and housing. <br> The first wave of the survey was carried out in 1988-1989 (the data are held at the Archive under SN:2946). Two-thirds of the respondents from the first wave were re-interviewed in 1994.
