The future for older workers:opportunities and constraints; IndexAcross the world, governments in mature industrial and post-industrial economies are concerned about the ageing population. Dealing directly and exclusively with the issue of older workers, this book brings together up-to-the-minute research findings by many of the leading researchers and writers in the field. The duration and quality of working lives, and the timing and circumstances of retirement is of growing concern, especially in those cases where employers' demands and imperatives clash with employees' wishes. The contributions in this volume focus upon various measures taken by the state and by employers to foster the employment of older workers in the US, Britain, mainland Europe, and Japan.Older peopleEmploymentForecastingOlder peopleEmploymentForecasting.331.398Loretto WendyVickerstaff Sarah1956-White PhilUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910784722603321The future for older workers3832923UNINA
