Abstract
Female retirement has received very limited attention in the research literature. In this paper, the concept of career set is employed as the basis for a framework designed to analyse the impact of women's involvement in multiple careers on their adjustment to retirement. An extensive review of existing literature leads the author to conclude that the familial careers engaged in by married, working women have a mediative effect on their transition to retirement. In order to understand female retirement it is necessary to examine the interplay of multiple careers and their relative salience to women in the labour force.
