Abstract
The combination of work and family obligations can lead to two-way interference, resulting in Family Care Interference with Work (FCIW) and Work Interference with Family Care (WIFC). Both can impact late career motivation and intentions to continue working or retire and reduce their occupational time perspective (OFTP). Through two studies, this paper shows how OFTP mediates the relationship between FCIW/WIFC and mid and late career indicators such as early retirement intentions and motivation to continue working beyond the retirement age. Our findings contribute to increasing knowledge of how increasing family caregiving obligations may impact the career intentions of working carers in their mid and late career stages.
