Abstract
Labour market links to well-being have relied on cross-sectional or short-horizon longitudinal evidence discounting the dynamism of individual labour market involvement, and its accumulated welfare effects. This is despite disruptions to labour market experiences comprising major life events that substantially vary within and across countries, transversing industries and ascriptive socio-economic criteria. This study uses multiple regression modelling and Optimal Matching Analysis (OMA) of retrospective life histories of respondents aged 50 years or older, from wave 3 and 7 of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE)— SHARELIFE— to empirically investigate the ‘utility’ effects of different life-cycle labour market trajectories. Obtained results are significant for labour market policies and regulations similar to the dismissal restrictions in the Dutch labour market.
