This report addresses the question whether resilience affects attitudes of middle-aged employees toward retirement. Are resilient employees more prepared and/or ready for retirement? To address this question, a survey of over 214 employees aged 50 or more was taken. Participants worked in the Seoul metropolitan area. This study utilized the SPSS 19.0 program. A sophisticated regression analysis software system was conducted to measure and identify relationships and correlations among groups of participants. Our findings included four points. First, male employees were better prepared for retirement than women. Second, the more educated (or the higher the household income), the better prepared was the participant for retirement. Third, the more resilient a worker was, the less was the resistance expected from him/her on retirement. Finally, a positive attitude was an indication the worker would be well-prepared for retirement. In summary, workers who displayed resilience and a positive attitude in their work were best prepared for retirement.
