Across 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
circustances of retirement are 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 employers to foster the
employment of older workers in Britain, mainland Europe, the US and
Japan. The authors address key issues that will influence public
policy, exploring what workers over 50 want, the impact of the
ageing workforce on employer policies and the implications for
governments in promoting and supporting extended working lives. The
book is aimed at academics, students, policy makers and other
professionals (such as training managers, HR professionals and
trade unionists) interested in contemporary issues within social
policy, the sociology of ageing, and human resource and diversity
management. It wil also be of interest to older workers themselves.
