Work and retirement patterns among older Australian women and men are changing. In this paper, the interactions between these patterns and social security policies are contrasted with the desirable direction of work and retirement later in life. The change in Australia's retirement incomes system towards the “three pillar model” described by the World Bank poses particular issues for late life employment and retirement, especially for older women.
