Abstract

The elderly population of all societies protected by welfare states has significantly changed during the past century: it has increased its size and average age and it has improved its quality of life, to a great extent thanks to the wide access to social benefits and public services that cover its livelihood and health needs. However, in some countries –Spain among them–the population keeps exiting the labor market at an average age below 65. This threshold, established approximately 100 years ago, tenaciously resists abandoning its standing as the «social retirement age», even when the evolution of life expectancy drives up the share of people who reach 65 as well as the average length of retirement, with the resulting financial pressure on the pension system.
