Men 65-Plus Who Work Full-Time

Overall, 15.1 percent of men aged 65 or older work full-time, but the figure varies greatly by educational attainment...

  7.5%: no high school diploma
12.6%: high school graduate only

14.5%: Associate's degree
20.7%: Bachelor's degree
16.8%: Master's degree

The pattern is the same for women, although the percentages are less. Among women aged 65 or older, the percentage who work full-time ranges from 4 percent among those with less than a high school education to a high of 24 percent among those with a professional degree.
