Demographic changes seen in Europe represent the challenge for social protection system and for the job market. In most countries of European Union we can see a clear tendency to increase retirement age. In our country breaking the reluctance towards the attempts of increasing retirement age appears to be difficult, and only a small percentage of employees decide to continue their professional career after coming to retirement age. The aim of research was to deepen the diagnosis concerning the phenomenon of low professional activity of women being at retirement age by looking into intergeneration differenc- es. Results shows negative attitude to the idea of professional activity in the old age, which is motivated mainly by health problems, labor market conditions and women’s double burden.
