Title The effect of health on retirement decisions in Hungary
Summary Using a Hungarian panel dataset, I attempt to estimate the effect of health on the timing of retirement in a discrete dura- tion econometric framework. Making use of a competing risk multinomial logit model, I find that self rated health has a large significant effect on the hazard of exiting from the labour force to disability pension, while it does not have any effect on the hazard of old age pension.
