“…The decrease in exit rates observed in the control group is interpreted as being mainly the consequences of the fostering of financial incentives to work beyond the full rate, that are implemented in 2004 and reinforced in the following years. The rather small effect of the surcote on retirement behavior we observe is consistent with the evaluation of the scheme that was undertaken on the same data we use (Benallah, 2011). Assuming that the surcote is the main driver of the observed trend in job exit, our estimate suggests that its effect has been divided by two for the treated group.…”

“…Those derogatory agreements were not mentioned in the first draft of the law, suggesting a resistance to this change, possibly from industrial lobbies. SeeCiccotelli (2016) for an analysis of the role played by employers' unions in labor market policies in France since 1960.5Benallah (2011) shows that the implementation of the surcote had a small but positive employment impact. The paper, however, does not account for the contemporaneous change in mandatory retirement legislation.…”

Can I stay or should I go? Mandatory retirement and the labor-force participation of older workers

Retirement is commonly described as a pure labor supply decision, despite the potential importance of the demand side channel. This is partly due to the fact that both dimensions are often difficult to disentangle. In this paper, I manage to overcome this difficulty by using a unique natural experiment, the progressive ban of mandatory retirement in France in the 2000s. Drawing on an extensive administrative dataset, I use inter-industry reforminduced variations in mandatory retirement legislation, thereby insulating this factor from other determinants of retirement, such as financial incentives. I find that demand-side determinants through mandatory retirement do affect retirement patterns: exit rates from employment are estimated to be 6% higher when mandatory retirement is possible. Secondly, as the mandatory retirement age coincides with the full rate age, I exhibit a previously uncovered determinant of the large bunching in retirement distribution at this age. Mandatory retirement is estimated to explain 10% of the observed spike at full rate.

“…This is not at odds with previous analyses which found that women retire later than men (Magnac, Rapoport and Roger, 2006). Indeed, Benallah (2011) emphasizes that, due to a non-linear career or a later first participation in the labour force, women reach the bonus conditions (the insurance duration) later than men. Likewise, the results also show some signs of spouses coordinated decision: individuals who have another income source in their household are more likely to retire without a bonus.…”

“…Although the latter retire without the bonus, their decision is rather based on the impossibility to reach the eligibility conditions than on a real decision not to delay retirement. Administrative data do not allow the control of the insurance duration at the early retirement age (Benallah, 2011). This constitutes a limit to the delayed retirement choice modelling even if this potential bias is limited: as stated above in section III.1, most of the individuals who retired with full benefits have reached their Full Retirement Age by the insurance duration (and not by the Normal Retirement Age).…”

Time inconsistency and delayed retirement decision: the French pension bonus

With the increase in life expectancy and demographic shocks, several public policies in the last decades aim to encourage individuals to postpone retirement. One of them, the pension bonus, gives an increased pension if individuals retire beyond their Full Retirement Age. Previous ex post analyses found that the responsiveness to this type of financial incentives, which encourage to postpone retirement, is heterogeneous among agents and that the global effect is rather limited. Deriving from previous research in Behavioural Economics, this article analyses the impact of time inconsistency in the decision to delay retirement to get the bonus. Using public national survey data, short-term and long-term impatience are measured with questions on retiring motivations. After controlling for the endogeneity of the bonus knowledge, econometric results show that time-inconsistent agents are less likely to retire with the bonus.

“…Ces résultats sont conformes à la tendance généralement décrite pour la Belgique et l'Europe en général (Benallah et Mette, 2009), traduisant une anticipation de plus en plus grande de l'âge au départ du marché du travail. Au-delà de ce premier constat, il s'agissait d'analyser l'évolution du coefficient de variation, indicateur susceptible de traduire un accroissement de la diversification des âges au départ du marché du travail.…”

Parcours de vie et âges des transitions en Belgique : vers une déstandardisation des âges à l’entrée et au départ du marché du travail ?

Depuis plusieurs décennies, on assiste à une transformation profonde des parcours professionnels. L’entrée dans la vie active est de plus en plus tardive et complexe, tandis que les départs du marché du travail sont devenus très précoces, en Europe et particulièrement en Belgique, au point d’inquiéter les décideurs politiques et de les inciter à intervenir. L’analyse de cette double transformation a amené différents auteurs à formuler l’hypothèse d’une déstandardisation des parcours de vie à partir des années 1960. À partir de données rétrospectives sur la Belgique, cet article entend tester l’hypothèse d’une déstandardisation des âges à l’entrée et à la sortie du marché du travail au cours des années 1965-2001.
