Moreover, the pragmatism philosophy adopted was most appropriate as the researcher combined elements of the positivist and interpretivist philosophies. Furthermore, the participants comprised of 30 construction sector employees from the Oshana Region, Namibia. Additionally, the study used semi-structured interviews as a data collection method. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data by coding themes, making comparisons and examination of the data. The findings of this research are that construction sector employees do not venture into retirement planning and the sociodemographic group with low retirement planning interest is men, low-income earners and financially illiterate individuals. In the final analysis, the study recommends that more research is required to validate the data from these construction employees. The study also recommends the need for construction sector employees to acquaint themselves with the dynamics and literacy on financial issues and retirement planningenPost-retirement livingNamibiaUniversity of NamibiaOshana regionConstruction sector employeeThesis
