본 연구에서는 직장생활을 하고 있는 베이비부머 세대의 삶의 질 정도와 노후준비를 살펴보고 직장생활, 노후준비, 삶의 질 간의 실증적인 관계를 파악하여 직장생활을 하는 베이비부머 세대의 삶의 질에 노후준비가 어떤 매개효과를 가지는 가에 대한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 연구대상은 경상남도 창원시에서 직장생활을 하고 있는 베이비부머 세대(1955년-1963년) 204명을 대상으로 2012년 9월 22일~9월 30일의 기간 동안 설문지를 통해 면접 조사하였다. 중심 변수들 간의 연구모형을 SPSS 15.0을 이용하여 일반적인 특성과 영향력 검증을 한 후, Amos 7.0을 이용하여 구조방정식 모형을 통해 매개효과 검증을 하였다. 연구결과, 창원시에서 직장생활을 하고 있는 베이비부머 세대에 있어서 직장생활 즉 직무에 대한 만족도와 직장생활을 통한 사회적 교류 정도가 삶의 질에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이들의 노후에 대한 준비는 삶의 질에 부분매개효과를 가지는 것으로 나타났다.
