Describe two antecedent factors that affect work and retirement in later adulthood.
Two of the many factors that influence work and retirement for later adulthood are a person’s finances and a person’s health. A person has to be able to afford to take care of themselves and their responsibilities to determine if they can retire. An individual’s health is a key component to work and retirement in later adulthood. Health is a key component in any stage of life. It is truly a determining factor of what a person can and cannot do. A person that is in good physical and mental health will work longer than the person that does not have good physical and mental heath. The better a person finances the more likely they are to retire earlier than the person who is poor.
