A study evaluating the relationship between health, work environment, and retirement-related job lock finds that "over half of all respondents over the age of 55 [who experienced a workplace injury] reported that they would like to leave work altogether but could not due to financial or health benefits constraints (job lock)." (p. 8)
Katy, L. B., Pransky, G., & Savageau, J. A. (n.d.) Factors associated with retirement-related job lock in older workers with recent occupational injury [unpublished manuscript].
"Workers completed a mailed, self-report survey about their pre- and post-injury health and functioning, work environment, and retirement plans. Bivariate and multivariate analyses determined those factors associated with retirement-related job lock. A total of 1,524 (51%) questionnaires were returned. Overall response rate, excluding those who could not be contacted or were found to be ineligible for the study, was 53%."
