Work occupies a central place in human life, so that interventions about the workretirement transition have been developed aiming at facilitating life-long professional development, especially at the disengagement stage. This study aimed to describe and analyze the results of a retirement preparation program (PPA). In four years of the program participated 122 people with average age of 57 years (SD = 1,52). The program was developed in eight meetings, in which the following topics like: financial life, entrepreneurship, health and aging, family, social life, socio-professional trajectory and future projects. Through self-assessments comparing the pre and post intervention situation, participants recorded relevant changes in feelings and internal resources to cope with work-retirement transition. Possibilities in order to improve the program and implementation of public policies for retirement and decent aging were pointed out, considering the Brazilian economic and social security scenario.

Keywords : labor; retirement; professional development; development stages.
