미래에 일하고 싶은 노인에 관한 연구 - 성별에 대한 건강변수 조절효과를 중심으로 -

The elderly in Korea are struggling with old age due to early retirement and unprepared old age. Previous studies have mainly focused on identifying the characteristics of the elderly working and the determinants of working. However, research on the elderly who are currently unemployed and want to work in the future is insufficient. With this background, the elderly who want to work in the future differ according to gender, and the purpose of this study is to examine how health variables such as self-rated health, functional limitation, and depression have a moderating effect on these genders. To achieve this research purpose, logistic regression analysis was conducted by SPSS 27.0 using the 2023 Survey on Seniors (N=6,029) conducted by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs. The results of the study are as follows. First, the moderating effect of the self-rated health variable was significant, and it was found that the better the self-rated health of men than women, the more they wished to work in the future. Second, the moderating effect of the variable limiting physical function was significant, and it was found that the hope of working in the future decreased further when women had functional limitations compared to men. From the results of the study, a policy was proposed to increase the willingness of the elderly aged 65 or older to work in the future so that they could actually enter the labor market.
