Facing the Challenges of a Multi-Age Workforce examines the
shifting economic, cultural, and technological trends in the modern
workplace that are taking place as a result of the aging global
workforce. Taking an international perspective, contributors
address workforce aging issues around the world, allowing for
productive cross-cultural comparisons. Chapters adopt a
use-inspired approach, with contributors proposing solutions to
real problems faced by organizations, including global teamwork,
unemployed youth, job obsolescence and over-qualification, heavy
emotional labor and physically demanding jobs, and cross-age
perceptions and communication. Additional commentaries from
sociologists, gerontologists, economists, and scholars of labor and
government round out the volume and demonstrate the
interdisciplinary nature of this important topic.
