In this Mikrozensus survey employedand formerly employed retired persons older than 60 (women) or 65 years (men) are questioned on working conditions. The foci are on the environment of the work place, the stress connected with the job and the interviewees’ health. This survey continues a series of Mikrozensus surveys on labour market and employment questions and is mostly comparable with the survey from September 1985 (Mikrozensus MZ8503).
