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. 606 $aOlder people$xEmployment$xForecasting 615 0$aOlder people$xEmployment$xForecasting. 676 $a331.398 702 $aLoretto$b Wendy 702 $aVickerstaff$b Sarah$f1956- 702 $aWhite$b Phil 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784722603321 996 $aThe future for older workers$93832923 997 $aUNINA
