The effect of job mobility on pension wealth

SA Mehdizadeh and RA Luzadis
Scripps Gerontology Center, Miami University, Oxford, OH 45056.

This study examined the extent to which labor market mobility affects workers' ability to amass retirement wealth through employer-sponsored pension plans. This is done by calculating the total pension wealth accumulated over a worker's entire career using different patterns of pension coverage in a variety of jobs. The study indicates that, with a mobile workforce, accumulation of pension wealth depends critically on the type and timing of pension coverage during a career.
