퇴직자의 가교일자리 취업을 위한 과정과 경험

The purpose of this study was to empirically analyze the perceptions and experiences of individual in-depth interviews with those employed in bridging jobs after retirement to prepare for and after retirement for bridging job. In order to achieve the purpose, the theoretical background for retirement, bridging job, and career stage theory was constructed by reviewing previous studies at home and abroad. And individual interviews were conducted with 16 adults in their 50s and 70s who were employed in bridging jobs after retirement. The interview contents were recorded and transcribed, and then analyzed by content analysis. The analysis results are as follows. First, the categories that distinguished the timing of retirement and bridging jobs in the interview contents and the elements that analyzed the concerns, reflections, learning, and work experiences of retirees(scheduled) in each category were included. The categories were divided into four categories: ‘time of sleeplessness and agony when hiking at 1 a.m.’, ‘time of reflection on life listening to one's story’, ‘time of learning and rest’, and ‘time of maturity to gain new experiences and comfort’. Second, the preparation and advancement of middle-aged and elderly retirees into bridging jobs showed characteristics that lead to new experiences and comfort through worries and reflections, learning and rest, and bridging jobs. Third, career-related reflection, learning and experiences of the retired or pre-retired people were important factors in preparing for a bridging job. Forth, the retired or pre-retired people in this study spent a new career transition period by showing the characteristics of finding what they really want to do. Based on the above results, discussions and implications were suggested.
