Abstract

Retirement is a fact which ends working life virtually; nevertheless, people may tend to pursue an economic activity after retirement. This paper examines leading causes of working after retirement in Turkey. A random sample of retired and older people was selected from 54 provinces of Turkey. In this study, it is intended to determine the relationship between retired people’s perceptions of quality of life and their reemployment status. Moreover, possible effects of intention to work on quality of life were tested. “Quality of Life Assessment Tool” and “Quality of Life Module for Older People” developed by World Health Organisation and a supplementary question form developed by the project team respectively are conducted in all regions of Turkey, resulting with 2914 usable forms. With national level analyses, retirement status, reemployment, its antecedents and relationship with quality of life were examined. Results show that there are many connections between Quality of Life domains and working after retirement. © 2013 European Journal of Research on Education by IASSR.

土耳其的退休后工作现象及其与生活质量的关系

退休实际上是工作生活的结束;然而，人们可能倾向于在退休后从事经济活动。本文考察了土耳其退休后工作的主要原因。从土耳其54个省随机抽取了退休人员和老年人的样本。在本研究中，旨在确定退休人员的生活质量感知与他们的再就业状况之间的关系。此外，工作意向对生活质量可能产生的影响也进行了测试。世界卫生组织制定的"生活质量评估工具"和"老年人生活质量模块"以及项目小组制定的补充问题表分别在土耳其所有地区进行了实施，产生了2914份可用表格。通过国家层面的分析，研究了退休状况、再就业、其前因后果以及与生活质量的关系。结果表明，生活质量领域与退休后工作之间存在许多联系。©2013《欧洲教育研究杂志》，IASSR出版。
