3 weken geleden

Den Haag, Nederland Koninklijke Nederlandse Akademie van Wetenschappen Voltijd

**Location**:The Hague
**Max hours per week**:38.00
**Max salary**:5.278
**Duration of agreement**:1 year possible extension to 3 years total

**Project description**
Population ageing has become a driver for policies that encourage healthy and economically productive ageing. Among other things, the state pension age is increasing to promote the extension of paid working lives and, consequently, to reduce the fiscal pressure of state pensions on federal government. Whereas in the past, it was often the male breadwinner who retired alone, with a slightly younger partner at home, currently most people face the retirement decision as a couple. Of sixty-year-old working women and men today, 72% has a spouse who is also working. These demographic shifts raise important new research questions, like: How do spouses influence each other's retirement decisions? Does a retired spouse ‘pull’ the working partner out of the labor market? To what extent are there gender differences in spousal influences? How do solo and joint retirement affect people's health and well-being? The project will use data from the NIDI Pension Panel Survey (2015-2018-2023). This is a prospective multi-level cohort study (N>5000) among wage employed older workers (60-65 at baseline) enrolled in three of the bigger Pension Funds in the Netherlands. In the study both partners are included as respondents.

This project is funded by Netspar. The postdoc project is based at NIDI in The Hague. The postdoc will be part of the ‘Work and Retirement Theme Group’. The postdoc will write articles for international refereed journals, as well as for more policy oriented outlets. The postdoc is also expected to participate in acquisition of external grants and collecting new survey data.

**Main tasks**
- Writing academic articles.
- Data analysis of survey data.
- Contribution to the dissemination of research findings.
- Contribution to data collection.
- Contribution to acquisition.

**Requirements**:

- Acquired a PhD in Sociology or a related discipline (or being on the verge of acquiring a PhD in this area).
- Solid knowledge of statistical methods for the analysis of data from individual and/or household surveys, preferably panel and multi-actor data.
- Knowledge of main theories in family sociology and gerontology.
- Excellent writing and social skills.
- Preferably fluent in Dutch.

**Additional information**

**Application procedure**
- A motivation letter.
- A full curriculum vitae, including list of publications, names and contact details of two referees and an overview of university grades.

**Terms of employment**
We are offering a Postdoc position initially for one year. Any extension will be contingent on performance, availability of funds, and the human resource needs of the infrastructure. Our cao stipulates a maximum of 4 years in total for a temporary research-based contract.

Depending on education and experience the minimum salary is 3.345 and the maximum salary is 5.278 gross per month for a full-time appointment (scale 10 cao Nederlandse Universiteiten/KNAW). This is exclusive of 8% vacation allowance, 8.3% year-end bonus, travel allowance, internet allowance, home working allowance and pension accrual with ABP.

The KNAW offers its staff an excellent package of secondary benefits. A package that meets the different needs of employees depending on their stage of life, lifestyle or career ambitions.
