Baby boomers want to continue working past normal retirement
age, according to a survey. Fifty-eight per cent of people in their
50s and 60s who were still working said they wanted to carry on
after 65 and 10% did not want to retire at all. But 64% also felt
it was impossible to get a new job once they were within 10 years
of state pension age.
The survey of 1,770 people was carried out for Heyday, a new
group aimed at people born between 1946 and 1965. The organisation,
has been set up by Age Concern.
