As a result of the correlation and hierarchical regression analysis, first, it was found that all factors of sub-factors(economic, physical, emotional social preparation for old age) in a local government official s attitude towards retirement, activity after retirement and preparation for old age showed a positive correlation. Second, with regard to economic preparation for old age, ages, income, attitude towards retirement, and activity after retirement were found to be effective variables, among which the socio-demographic variable showed high explanation power. Third, with regard to physical preparation for old age, gender, ages, a city service is offered, income, and activity after retirement were found to be effective variables, among which the socio-demographic variable showed high explanation power. Fourth, with regard to emotional preparation for old age, the intention of doing activity after retirement was found to be an effective variable while showing high explanation power. Fifth, with regard to preparation for old age, ages, religion, income and activity after retirement were found to be effective variables, among which the intention of doing activity after retirement showed high explanation power. Hereupon, this study is intending to make a suggestion as follows: First, it s necessary to improve the restriction on employment system for retired public officials suited for a public official of a local autonomous entity. Particularly, it can be said that there is the need for a structure applicable to the field in line with the characteristic of a local government. Second, what matters is the importance of pre-retirement education. In other words, there is the need for the retirement management program as an education program that meets the local government officials needs. Thus, there is the need for an education program that can make local government officials realize its importance realistically. Third, it s necessary to do aggressive encouragement to the activity after retirement of local government officials. This study thinks that it s necessary to arrange the volunteer work system that can be connected while in office or even after retirement by strengthening the strong point that a local government official is in a close relation with a region. Lastly, this study thinks there is the need for a discussion about local government officials from various angles. It is thought that in the midst of the increase in the number of retired public officials in aging society, preparation for old age and retirement could be an alternative to provision for social issues.
