Background to the module

A questionnaire on the topic of the transition from work to retirement of individuals aged 50 - 69 years was included in the Quarterly National Household Survey (QNHS) in the second quarter (April – June) of 2012. The module was designed by the Central Statistics Office in consultation with Eurostat (Regulation 0577/1998). The focus of the module was to collect data on the decisions and choices working people make when considering retirement. More information on the module is available using this link (http://www.cso.ie/en/qnhs/qnhsmethodology/) These are the main tables.
