| Resumo: | This study investigated the intention of the older workers to continue working after state
pension age/time. On this way, it explores the relation between this intention and factors
related with the meanings of the work and retirement. Specifically, it was examined that
factors related to work and non-work are predictors of the intention to continue working,
and it was explored if meanings of retirement are linked to this decision. It is a crosssectional
mixed methods study, using a survey conducted with 283 federal civil servants
of a federal Northeastern University which were near retirement. It envolved an on-line
questionnaire, with open-ended questions and the likert-type scale "Older Worker's
Intention to Continue Working" (OWICW) of Shacklock and Brunneto (2011), which
was validated to the Brazilian version. The quantitative data were analyzed using
descriptive and multivariate statistics, specifically procedures for comparing means and
coefficients of multiple logistic regression. The qualitative data were analyzed using the
lexicographical technique Descending Hierarchical Classification. The findings indicate
that most participants want to continue in paid work, and that perception of personal
autonomy at work, interpersonal relationships at work, interests outside of work, and
flexible working arrangements are significant predictors of intention to continue working.
Furthermore, the perception of personal autonomy at work, flexible working
arrangements, and the financial incentives are predictors of decision to postpone
retirement and remain in the organization. The analysis revealed five patterns of meanings
of retirement: "worker's right", "resting", "idle time at home", "new stage in the life
course", and "enjoy the use of time”. The decision to postpone retirement is linked to
idleness and lack of substitutionary activities work, and the decision to stop working
linked to retirement as a life with more quality. The study provides information that can
contribute with management policies before the process of retirement decision. |
