Presentation

I research the transition to disability pensions, the factors that influence this transition, and the possibility of working alongside receiving a disability pension. I am also interested in the income and financial wellbeing of pensioners. I have a PhD in public health from the University of Helsinki and I am particularly interested in quantitative research methods. In my research work, I extensively use various registry and survey data.

Ongoing research projects

  • Entrepreneurs’ transition to disability pension
  • Working while receiving a disability pension
