Eliminating Mandatory Retirement: Effects on Retirement Age.
Holden, Karen C.; Hansen, W. Lee
New Directions for Higher Education, n65 p73-83 Spr 1989
Uncapping the mandatory retirement age is unlikely to alter retirement age by much, but it will lead to substantially higher pensions for faculty members who continue to work. Institutions must monitor retirement-age behavior in order to restructure pension and other benefits appropriately to meet income and retirement objectives. (Author/MSE)
