According to the "A Work-Filled Retirement" survey, "almost 60% of employees still working in their primary job are currently eligible through their employer for a retirement or pension plan, including 401(k)s. Fifty-one percent of workers are very confident that their plan will have the benefits they expect upon retirement. An additional 31% are somewhat confident that their expectations will be met." (p.21)
Reynolds, S., Ridley, N., & Van Horn, C., Ph.D. (2005, August). A Work-Filled Retirement: Workers' Changing Views on Employment and Leisure. Worktrends, 8.1 (Summer '05).
“In this report, American workers across the nation describe their expectations of retirement and their views of how older workers are treated in the workplace…A total of 1,232 adults were interviewed for this survey. Respondents who worked full or part time, or who were unemployed and looking for work, received a complete interview. A total of 432 respondents who did not meet these criteria received a short interview that included demographic questions. The results of this report are based on a total of 800 complete interviews with members of the workforce, including 82 people who have retired from their primary job but remain in the workforce. The final results were weighted to match U.S. Census Bureau estimates for age, educational attainment, gender, and race.”
