Abstract

The average retirement age increased during the pandemic. Only a few individuals reported retiring earlier than planned due to the pandemic. Mental health issues led to earlier retirement. Working from home and receiving financial support from the government were associated with later retirement. Giving older workers the chance to work remotely may provide a bridge to retirement, as eliminating commuting time and allowing employees to work in a familiar environment may induce them to prolong their working life.
