As people live for longer and the State Pension age rises, understanding how working lives can be extended in ways which are both sustainable and rewarding has become an increasingly important issue for individuals, employers and policy makers. This study examined how people in their 60s successfully reshaped work to extend their career, on terms which suited their changing needs and priorities.
