Abstract: While the stakes involved in the loss of autonomy seem, in many respects, so high as to call for extremely far-reaching and costly reforms, it is possible to push back the average age at which people become dependent through measures that are both ambitious and relatively easy to implement. To achieve this, two things must first be done: rethink how to help people maintain their autonomy throughout their entire lifespan and go beyond statistical averages to combat inequalities in relation to dependency. This article proposes two sets of measures to promote autonomy: combating sedentary and stressful conditions at work and encouraging seniors to take part in socialized activities. These measures would help delay the average loss of autonomy by at least 3.2 years. JEL classification: I12, I18, J18.
