Abstract: | Abstract In this paper, a stochastic model is developed for the prediction of the employee's cumulative pensionable service over his working life, as a function of his unemployment periods and his completed lengths of service, under a service requirement constraint. Distributional and first passagetime problems are considered for the total pensionable service and a generalized renewal equation is formally solved. Further useful results are obtained and numerical applications are given. |
