    El procés d’envelliment a Europa dóna lloc a canvis importants en la composició de la força laboral que plantegen nous desafiaments als diversos agents socials, les empreses, l’administració pública i els treballadors mateixos.

    Aquesta situació ha fet sorgir un interès cada cop major per entendre el procés que du les persones a jubilar-se abans de temps. La investigació en aquest àmbit ha partit de dues perspectives. Una perspectiva considera la jubilació primerenca com un fenomen involuntari i que és resultat de les polítiques socials i dels acords entre l’empresa, l’administració i els sindicats per fer front a problemes estructurals. L’altra perspectiva, tot i que considera també els efectes de variables macro, entén la jubilació prematura fonamentalment com una decisió individual, i s’ha centrat a analitzar diferents factors que empenyen o atreuen les persones a prendre la decisió de jubilar-se anticipadament.

    Tot i això, la investigació sobre jubilació primerenca pràcticament no ha analitzat la decisió de sortida de rol laboral en el context dels diversos grups socials i d’organitzacions als quals pertany l’individu i que formen part del seu conjunt de rol com a treballador. Tenint en compte aquesta llacuna, en el present treball analitzem el procés de jubilació primerenca com un procés de sortida de rol, atenent especialment al paper del context social i cultural de l’individu en aquest procés.

    The aging process in Europe is having a significant impact on the composition of the workforce. This, in turn, is bringing about new questions and challenges for the social agents, organizations, governments and the workers themselves. This situation has increased the interest to understand what makes people retire early. Research on this topic has mainly been carried out from two perspectives. One of them considers early retirement as an involuntary phenomena that is caused by social policies and agreements between companies, governments and unions in order to solve different structural problems.

    The other perspective understands this process as an individual decision and has tried to identify different factors that either push or pull workers towards early retirement. Nonetheless, research in this field has not addressed the early retirement decision in its societal and organizational context. Given that individuals do not make decisions in a social vacuum, the groups to which they belong to, should play an important role in retirement decisions. To address this gap, the present paper analyzes early retirement as a process of workrole exist, highlighting the role of social and cultural context in this process.
