The transition of women and men from work to retirement - Issue number 97/2007 - Products Statistics in Focus
The age at which women and men are entitled to draw a full retirement pension is similar in most European countries, varying between 60 and 65 for women in nearly all countries and between 62 and 65 for men. However, the age at which women and men actually withdraw from the labour market into retirement varies much more markedly across Europe and in most cases is well below the official age. The aim of this Statistics in Focus is to estimate the ages concerned.
