Book Synopsis The Impact of Workforce Aging on European Productivity by : Mr.Shekhar Aiyar
Download or read book The Impact of Workforce Aging on European Productivity written by Mr.Shekhar Aiyar and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-01-18 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The age-distribution of Europe’s workforce has shifted towards older workers over the past few decades, a process expected to accelerate in the years ahead.. This paper studies the effect of the aging of the workforce on labor productivity, identifies the main transmission channels, and examines what policies might mitigate the effects of aging. We find that workforce aging reduces growth in labor productivity, mainly through its negative effect on TFP growth. Projected workforce aging could reduce TFP growth by an average of 0.2 percentage points every year over the next two decades. A variety of policies could ameliorate this effect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is in the midst of a major demographic shift. In the coming decades, people aged 65 and over will make up an increasingly large percentage of the population: The ratio of people aged 65+ to people aged 20-64 will rise by 80%. This shift is happening for two reasons: people are living longer, and many couples are choosing to have fewer children and to have those children somewhat later in life. The resulting demographic shift will present the nation with economic challenges, both to absorb the costs and to leverage the benefits of an aging population. Aging and the Macroeconomy: Long-Term Implications of an Older Population presents the fundamental factors driving the aging of the U.S. population, as well as its societal implications and likely long-term macroeconomic effects in a global context. The report finds that, while population aging does not pose an insurmountable challenge to the nation, it is imperative that sensible policies are implemented soon to allow companies and households to respond. It offers four practical approaches for preparing resources to support the future consumption of households and for adapting to the new economic landscape.
Book Synopsis Managing the Aging Workforce by : Marius Leibold
Download or read book Managing the Aging Workforce written by Marius Leibold and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-06-27 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing the Aging Workforce is one of the crucial topics for many of the world ́s enterprises. The increasing average age of populations does not only affect social systems, countries and communities, but also has a strong impact on the work of businesses and companies. The decline in demographic fitness will not only hit countries like the U.S., the Western European countries, or Japan, but also the upcoming societies in China or in the Eastern European countries. In many of these countries, during three or four decades the average age will grow from about 40 years now to about 50 years. Where experts are needed, this may result in an increase of the workforce's age of between 5 and 10 years in only one decade. For companies thus, a number of challenges arise that have to be overcome fast and continuously. The main topics in this field will be new strategies in leadership, new concepts in health management, new ways in knowledge management and learning, as well as new models how to drive ideas for diversity and innovation. On the one hand, enterprises therefore will have to invest in their aging employees for supporting their talents, helping them to learn and keeping them in the company. On the other, they will have to increase productivity, keep on searching for new products, and integrate experts from abroad. This has to be combined with new ways of strategies and HR management. This book presents an analysis of the present and upcoming situation, and an introduction into the strategic concepts enterprises will need to survive in aging societies.

Download or read book Work and Aging written by Jan Snel and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few years the topic of work and ageing has received much public and professional interest. The progressive "greying" of the population and its impact on work is a problem of widespread and growing concern, with major consequences for the economy in terms of productivity, performance, health care, work design and entry opportunities; and for the individual older worker. A European Symposium on Work and Ageing was held in Amsterdam in 1993. It was intended not only for a forum of scientists but also for practitioners and policy-makers who are actually involved in this growing field of social interest.; "Work and Aging", a multi-disciplinary book derives, in part, from this symposium, but also includes especially invited contribributions from experts in occupational health and safety, organizational psychology, cognitive science, and ergonomics.; Throughout the diverse chapters, incentives are suggested on how and why an organization could benefit from the asset of an ageing worker. Training programmes for human resource management, with respect to the elderly and disabled worker in particular, are offered in order to deal effectively with vocational rehabilitation.

Download or read book Managing an Ageing Workforce written by Daniel Smentek and published by diplom.de. This book was released on 2006-10-12 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Germany s population, and consequently its workforce is ageing. Fewer young people will enter the workforce and employers will be pressed to draw from an expanding pool of older people. As a consequence the working age population is projected to decline significantly; while the numbers of organisations depended on them will rise. At the same time, baby boomers are moving towards retirement and can not be replaced by middle-aged or younger workers. Facing impending talent shortages and a substantial loss of knowledge and experience, companies might have little choice but to implement new employment strategies. Primarily based on secondary research and supported by available data from various research institutions, this paper considers relevant variables and approaches related to challenges from a German perspective. This is done regardless of specific industry conditions and circumstances. The paper covers selected peripheral issues like attitudes and retirement intentions of older workers and the myths and stereotypes about them. It provides an overview of the German labour market, specifically the situation of older people, and how public policy has been responding to improve related conditions. Finally, minor and major interventions are presented to adapt human resource methods, work arrangements, and framework conditions. Recognising that an effective response to the demographic changes requires a broader perspective, i.e. considering all working generations, the proposed initiatives primarily focus on the attraction and retention of older people. International and more specific German demographic projections clearly indicate that age management is essential. Organisations have to be prepared to cope with the impending labour and skill shortages resulting from a declining population and a likely mass exodus of the baby boom generation from the workplace. Future competitiveness of businesses increasingly rests on the performance and productivity of older people. Hence understanding, retaining and utilising them becomes crucial. Considering characteristics of the older workforce segment, this paper shows that older workers are ready, willing, and able to stay employed. Medical advancements and other quality-of-life factors lead to people live longer and healthier. Myths and stereotypes about older workers are not upheld by available evidence and replaced by convictions to be a valuable resource for employers and capable [...]
Book Synopsis International Perspectives and Strategies for Managing an Aging Workforce by : Ince, Fatma
Download or read book International Perspectives and Strategies for Managing an Aging Workforce written by Ince, Fatma and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Older employees are often seen as an obstacle and not as an opportunity for companies, especially regarding the transfer of knowledge and experience. Effective development and utilization of older professional and managerial employees is an important issue as most organizations are not prepared to tailor their training methods to the needs and preferences of these employees due to negative stereotypes. Managing a rapidly aging workforce and sustaining economic dynamism calls for systematic research to prevent age discrimination due to an incomplete knowledge of older workers and politically challenging policy choices that require strong political commitments, robust management leadership, and social consensus. International Perspectives and Strategies for Managing an Aging Workforce examines the differences in stereotypes of older employees compared to younger employees in companies; analyzes the impact of the aging workforce on retention, productivity, and well-being; and investigates organizational systems, processes, and practices for managing older workers. Covering a range of topics such as retention and retirement, this reference work is ideal for researchers, academicians, practitioners, business owners, managers, human resource workers, instructors, and students.

Download or read book Golden Aging written by Maurizio Bussolo and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compared to other regions, Europe and Central Asia are by far the oldest. Moreover, population aging is set to accelerate further over the coming decades as large segments turn old. Additionally, some countries such as Russia and certain Eastern European countries are facing a shrinkage of their population. Against this backdrop, this report investigates what stands in the way of societies reaping the full benefits of increased longevity--that is, longer lives and potentially prolonged payoffs from human capital--and what can help to mitigate the possible negative impacts of a smaller and older workforce. Beginning with a focus on demographic trends, the report puts the rapid decline in fertility and contrasting migration trends in the region in a historical perspective and looks forward to the varying paths that population change may follow in the region. Next, it examines the evidence on the likely impact of demographic change on growth and savings, the labor force, firm and economy-wide innovation, poverty and inequality, and intergenerational solidarity. Finally, the report goes beyond diagnostics and puts an emphasis on what we know regarding successful policy interventions, presenting evidence on what has and has not worked in the past.--Publisher description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, Midwestern State University (Wichita Falls, Texas, USA), course: Organizational Behavior, language: English, abstract: Extending work lives has become part of a wider cross-national trend. Due to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, mandatory retirement ages in the United States have been largely eliminated. Additionally, Social Security regulations have been re-written to encourage delay of labor force withdrawal, and to reduce financial incentives for early retirement. According to a survey report from the Watson Wyatt consulting firm, it is expected that the workforce in the United States will become increasingly older. The survey concludes that 44 percent of those employees who are 50 years or older plan to retire after 65. The majority of the respondents (54%) stated that they will work for at least three more years than previously expected. Consequently, employers will be faced with numerous challenges. Families of older workers, their younger co-workers, as well as middle-age workers in today's multigenerational workforce are being affected. As such, the aging workforce will have impacts on the policies and practices of workplaces in the nonprofit, for-profit, and public sectors, and each individual employer is being challenged by the question of how to meet the requirements of their changing workforce. Besides impacts in the corporate environment, the nation’s productivity, economic growth and global competitiveness are also being challenged. This paper seeks to investigate the impact of delayed retirement of workers within the United States. At first, the change in the age profile in the U.S. is investigated to highlight the reason for the aging workforce. Second, the reasons for older workers remaining in the workforce are shown. The next chapter demonstrates the impacts of an aging workforce. Special attention is concentrated on recommendations how companies can deal with this issue.
