概要 / Abstract：
  Retirement is not only a social institution shaped by labor market and social welfare policy, but also a process affected by personal life chance and family situations, and therefore influences their citizen’s well-being. Taiwan’s pension systems do not always ensure corresponding benefits for those who have achieved their career goals in labor markets. Retirement decisions are not easy task for the majority of its citizens and often involved many factors in one’s life. My talk focuses on how the retirement arrangement related to the quality of life of the seniors. In particular, I will investigate the midlife work experiences and the resources workers acquired to determine the extent to which they affect the happiness of retirees. Based on the analyses of a longitudinal data, I will present some of the results of the long-term effects of career experiences on one’s quality of life.
