Reviews

Researchers from North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia provide 22 essays (including some country studies) on individual, organizational, and societal issues related to the aging workforce. They examine the mental health of the aging workforce; organizational initiatives to develop and retain older workers; psychological well-being and aging in the workplace; the effects of the institutional context on old age employment; young people's attitudes toward work and its impact on economic growth and the wealth of nations; stereotype, prejudice, and discrimination toward older workers; the concept of wisdom; and the role of human resource practices and other factors influencing the continuing work participation of older workers. Others address intergenerational learning and managing intergenerational relations in organizations; the effect of the disappearance of critical skills in the workforce; maintaining work ability to support and retain older workers; healthy aging in professional orchestral musicians; job performance and attitudes in later life; job insecurity, job loss, and reemployment; older people in political office; demographic trends and implications of the aging workforce; the effects of working on health; employers' attitudes toward older job seekers; and promoting non-discriminatory practices toward older employees in healthcare. -- Annotation (c)2017 * (protoview.com) *
