The interrelations between age, life transitions, drinking, and work roles are considered. Increased focus of age‐related research on employed adults is suggested. The relevance of concepts of age stratification and life transitions is discussed. Data from an ongoing study of the clients of employee assistance programs are presented to demonstrate relationships between age, job characteristics, and drinking problems.
