Demographic change is affecting societies and organizations alike.
Although ageing is relevant to all, there is still a tendency for
more negative stereotypes to be attributed to older individuals,
while positive stereotypes are mainly associated with younger
individuals. Further, there are indications of gendered ageism,
showing that age prejudices are more likely to affect women. This
book argues that, through holistic measures, human resources
management is of fundamental importance to an age-friendly and
non-age-discriminatory culture. It can be assumed that
awareness-raising on age issues also takes into account the gender
issue. Drawing on qualitative interviews with employees in the
Austrian banking industry and using an analytical framework, the
author provides suggestions and implications for organizations to
address this situation.
