PhD Researcher, Rebecca, a student at the University of York, is focusing on work-related transitions (most commonly, retirement) and wellbeing. These transitions include moving from employment to retirement, undergoing a role or career change, moving to a type of ‘bridge-employment’ (paid work undertaken after main career job, but before full retirement) or a reduction in working hours from full to part time.

She is looking to speak to people who are:

·         aged 50 and over

·         have undertaken a work-related transition in the past 5 years

·         who have experienced a negative impact on their mental health or wellbeing as a result of the transition

The study involves taking part in a telephone interview to talk about your experiences, lasting approximately 30-45 minutes.
