With the declining birthrate, aging population, and changes in the social demographic structure, the pension system faces severe challenges and has to be reformed. Many people worry that teachers will turn to postponing retirement, and young teachers will not be able to enter the field, which may lower the quality of teaching. However, will the pension reform really affect teachers’retirement decision? Of those who are qualified for retirement, under the same condition, some choose to keep working while others choose to retire.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the factors affecting the selection of retirement plan after the pension reform. This paper focuses on public elementary school teachers in Taipei city, conducting qualitative interviews with 30 teachers, including 15 retired teachers and 15 currently employed ones. This study compares those retired teachers and currently employed teachers who share similarities in their backgrounds. By using paired comparison method, this research aims at finding the critical factors that cause differences in decision-making on retirement plans. Factors in order of cruciality are“work,”“pension reform,”and“financial conditions.”The most crucial one is“work,”rather than“pension reform.”Based on the result, we suggest schools should improve work arrangements or workplace atmosphere to retain teachers. That should be the focus of future education policy reforms. |
