Peer reviewedChirikos, Thomas N.; Nestel, Gilbert – Journal of Human Resources, 1991

Hazard rate estimates on data from 3,038 older males found that physical job requirements and health conditions affect the likelihood of retiring in a disabled state. Strenuous and sedentary jobs did not differ greatly. (SK)
