Health trajectories across the work exit transition in the 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s: the role of working conditions and policy.

Although these findings provide no support for our hypothesis of diverging health trajectories over time based on work exposure, they show that exiting at a higher age is linked to poorer pre- and post-exit health and to pre-post-exit increases in physical limitations, suggesting greater health care costs in the near future.
