Abstract

Between 2010 and 2020, the state pension age for women will gradually increase, by one month every two months,from 60 to 65. At present, the headline employment and inactivity rates from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) are described asworking age. They are based on upper age limits of 59 for women and 64 for men to reflect the current state pension ages inthe UK. This article describes how these changes will be implemented and impact on key labour market statistics.
