Some information on the session logistics:
If not stated otherwise, the discussant is the following speaker, with the first speaker being the discussant of the last paper. The last speaker of each session is the session chair. (Exception: invited sessions)
Presenters should speak for no more than 20 minutes, and discussants should limit their remarks to no more than 5 minutes. The remaining time should be reserved for audience questions and the presenter’s responses. We suggest following these guidelines also in the (less common) 3-paper sessions in a 2-hour slot, to allow participants to move between sessions. Discussants are encouraged to avoid summarizing the paper. By focusing on a few questions and comments, the discussants can help start a broader discussion with the audience.
Only registered participants can attend this conference. Further information available on the congress website https://www.iseg.ulisboa.pt/en/event/iipf/ .

The Economic Consequences of Retirement: Connecting Impacts on Workers and Firms 1: Centre for the Analysis of Taxation, UK; 2: University of Warwick, UK; 3: London School of Economics, UK This paper investigates the firm-level consequences of labour supply shocks caused by the departure of older workers. We use comprehensive UK administrative data and leverage variation in statutory retirement ages and worker deaths. We find that firms respond to retirement primarily through external replacement rather than internal reorganisation or capital substitution, but that new hiring does not catch up. This leads to persistent contractions in workforce size and profitability. These negative effects appear driven by the loss of specific human capital, as adverse outcomes are concentrated among firms losing key workers.
