16th ESPAnet CONFERENCE<http://www.espanetvilnius2018.fsf.vu.lt/> 30 August–1 September 2018, Vilnius, Lithuania CALL FOR PAPER ABSTRACTS Stream 7: Reforming pension systems – employment, retirement and wellbeing in later life Convenors: Kati Kuitto (Finnish Centre for Pensions) and Katja Möhring (University of Mannheim) Description: Pension systems around the world have been reformed in several ways in order to maintain fiscal sustainability and to provide adequate old-age income in the face of population ageing and changing conditions at the labour market. Many of the recent reforms aim at postponing retirement and lengthening the life time employment required for full pension rights. At the same time, de-standardization of employment and different forms of self-employment are becoming more common. As a result, inequalities in old-age income and retirement seem more prevalent again. This stream focuses on recent reforms of pension systems design and their consequences for individual retirement behaviour as well as inequalities in old-age income, wealth, and wellbeing. We invite contributions on (but not limited to) following themes: · Atypical employment, flexible careers and pensions · New forms of flexible retirement and combining work and retirement · Extending working lives, later career employment · Consequences of changing working careers for later life health and wellbeing · Inequalities in pension provision due to gender, disability and migration · The interplay of pension, family and labour market policies · The changing roles of public, occupational and private pension schemes We particularly encourage contributions providing novel empirical insights. Submission may be both nation-specific and comparative. ABSTRACT SUBMISSION Abstracts should be about 500 words and be submitted only to one conference stream. Guidelines for submitting abstracts can be found at: http://www.espanetvilnius2018.fsf.vu.lt/conference/call-for-abstracts Deadline for submissions is 19 March 2018.
