The Aging Workforce

The Aging Workforce examines the changing demographics of the workforce, and their impact on the world of work. The numbers and proportions of older individuals in the U. S. population are increasing. Most organizations are ill-prepared to meet the challenges associated with older workers, and little research has addressed the development and implementation of effective human resource management practices for an aging workforce. The amp quot graying of America amp quot requires that we give more attention to both the problems and potential of an older workforce. Consequently, the book focuses on issues related to work life and aging.
