Title: [Aging in one's occupation: occupational and life's perspectives of elderly male and female employees]. Author: Niederfranke A. Journal: Z Gerontol; 1991; 24(5):251-6. PubMed ID: 1957538. Abstract: The consequences of social change for the workforce are discussed. In our society of the future we will have to deal with an aging industry as a result of the increasing number of older employees. Furthermore, we expect changes in relation to mandatory retirement in establishing the "Rentenreform 1992" (Retirement age policy). The necessity of intergenerational exchange to avoid "ageism" is explained. The impact of technology on life-long learning and qualifications of older workers is pointed out. Finally, we describe the pluralism of life courses as a characteristic of social change in relation to gender-effects.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
