The June 2010 online edition of Perspectives on Labour and Income, released today, features two items.

"Health factors and early retirement among older workers" uses data from the National Population Health Survey to examine the longitudinal effects of health status, chronic health conditions, health behaviours, and workplace stress on early exits from the labour market.

"Work absences in 2009" presents an overview of absences from work for personal reasons (illness or disability and personal or family responsibilities) among full-time employees.

The June 2010 online edition of Perspectives on Labour and Income, Vol. 11, no. 6 (75-001-X, free), is now available from the Key resource module of our website under Publications.
