Definition? Left Job for Retirement?
LFS asks the reason a respondent left a job Retirement is one option
But, this ‘self report’ misses retirement that leads to subsequent (‘bridge’) employment
And, it misses other separations that eventually lead to retirement

Definition? Stopped Working Permanently?
LAD enables us to track people and their income sources
So we can see if retirement leads to permanent withdrawal from the labour force
For COPS we created a retirement measure which is: left labour force and had no labour income (>$500) for the next three years
