Download or read book Health and Safety Needs of Older Workers written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-02-26 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirroring a worldwide phenomenon in industrialized nations, the U.S. is experiencing a change in its demographic structure known as population aging. Concern about the aging population tends to focus on the adequacy of Medicare and Social Security, retirement of older Americans, and the need to identify policies, programs, and strategies that address the health and safety needs of older workers. Older workers differ from their younger counterparts in a variety of physical, psychological, and social factors. Evaluating the extent, causes, and effects of these factors and improving the research and data systems necessary to address the health and safety needs of older workers may significantly impact both their ability to remain in the workforce and their well being in retirement. Health and Safety Needs of Older Workers provides an image of what is currently known about the health and safety needs of older workers and the research needed to encourage social polices that guarantee older workers a meaningful share of the nation's work opportunities.

Download or read book New Opportunities for Older Workers written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2000-08 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What role should older workers play in our future work force, when the retirement of the baby boomers, starting about 2010, will make tight labor markets commonplace. This unprecedented demographic shift calls for a fundamental rethinking about the work force of the future. Employer attitudes and policies must change if older workers are to remain in the work force longer. This report recommends a "pro-work" agenda for employers, policymakers, and olders in 6 areas: getting the financial incentives right; replacing stereotypes about older workers; the training imperative; rethinking the org. of work; getting older workers into new jobs: and a strong and flexible safety net.

Book Synopsis Retirement on the Line by : Caitrin Lynch
Download or read book Retirement on the Line written by Caitrin Lynch and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era when people live longer and want (or need) to work past the traditional retirement age, the Vita Needle Company of Needham, Massachusetts, provides inspiration and important lessons about the value of older workers. Vita Needle is a family-owned factory that was founded in 1932 and makes needles, stainless steel tubing and pipes, and custom fabricated parts. As part of its unusual business model, the company seeks out older workers; the median age of the employees is seventy-four. In Retirement on the Line, Caitrin Lynch explores what this unusual company's commitment to an elderly workforce means for the employer, the workers, the community, and society more generally. Benefiting from nearly five years of fieldwork at Vita Needle, Lynch offers an intimate portrait of the people who work there, a nuanced explanation of the company's hiring practices, and a cogent analysis of how the workers' experiences can inform our understanding of aging and work in the twenty-first century. As an in-depth study of a singular workplace, rooted in the unique insights of an anthropologist who specializes in the world of work, this book provides a sustained focus on values and meanings-with profound consequences for the broader assumptions our society has about aging and employment.

Book Synopsis Older Workers Ready to Hire by : Howard Risher, Ph.D.
Download or read book Older Workers Ready to Hire written by Howard Risher, Ph.D. and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employers in all sectors and in every developed country are confronted by mounting job vacancies that are impeding economic growth. The vacancies also affect government operations. The problem started a decade ago but was overlooked until the COVID crisis and the Great Resignation prompted the attention of the news media. Vacancies have averaged over 10 million a month since mid-2021. In recent unemployment reports, less than 6 million people were counted as looking for jobs. That explains the continuing high vacancy count. The vacancies are linked to two global demographic trends: fewer babies and increased longevity. The problem is also related to the shift starting decades ago from ‘blue collar’ jobs requiring strength and agility to knowledge jobs where skills are the keys to job performance. Knowledge workers today are fully capable of working as long as they are healthy. Professionals commonly work into their 70s. The demographic trends are also tied to the current political concern with funding Social Security. Those benefits are “pay-as-you-go” with current benefits funded by active workers. With increased numbers of retirees living longer, projections show the FICA taxes will be inadequate to pay the benefits by 2035. A deeply entrenched problem in the world’s youth-oriented society is ageism. That is treating older people differently from others based on assumptions or stereotypes related to their age. It influences employment, cultural settings, and politics. Research shows the assumptions are not valid, but too often employers rely on stereotypes and deny older workers training and promotion opportunities. Work cultures are too often unhealthy. The negative effects of ageism have been the focus of critical reports from the UN, the OECD, and the World Economic Forum. It’s a global problem. A McKinsey study found the annual costs are in the billions. In the first year of the pandemic, hundreds of thousands of older workers were laid off and the bias they experienced in job hunting convinced them to retire. Since then, federal data show three million workers more than normal retired; for many it was years earlier than planned. Now, many want to ‘unretire,’ but employers often ignore applications from older workers. Unfortunately, the courts concluded the ADEA applies only to employees, not applicants. That needs to be addressed by Congress. The bias and discrimination so costly to older workers is entrenched in the culture of many workplaces. That’s a core problem. Leaders need to focus on the need for change. Including older workers in ongoing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives is a good early step. Contrary to the stereotypes, research shows older workers have better job knowledge, are better at solving new problems, are capable of functioning with minimal supervision, and often have a better work ethic. In the same situation, they are likely to perform better than younger recent hires. They can be productive much sooner. All of which is to say, their loss can be costly and their skills hard to replace. For older workers, a ‘good’ job’ – that is a job where they are valued and treated fairly – and their decision to defer retirement contributes to better physical and mental health. They enjoy increased longevity. It also keeps them connected socially. When older workers continue working, they fill a void, and their taxes help to fund federal benefits. It’s a win-win.
Book Synopsis Gaining The Dividends Of Longer Life by : Jarold A. Kieffer
Download or read book Gaining The Dividends Of Longer Life written by Jarold A. Kieffer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not all older people are unfit for work. Indeed, most people over age 55 remain physically and mentally able to work, and rather than suffer the pressures of inflation or the boredom of idleness, many would prefer to stay productive longer. Dr. Kieffer says that their extensive experience and education qualify most of them to remain self-reliant well past current retirement ages. If they are enabled to do so, it would delay and reduce the time when they are forced to be financially and, in some cases, physically dependent. He argues that unless policy leaders in both the public and private sectors act quickly and imaginatively to gain the financial and social dividends that can accrue from longer life, our country, by default, will find itself preoccupied over the next thirty years with unnecessarily high costs of supporting its longer-living and rapidly increasing older population. Dr. Kieffer explains why current retirement policies are no longer economically and politically manageable, and he suggests a cost-effective strategy whereby public and private funds could be used to enable millions of older people to remain active in jobs that serve unmet community needs. He also outlines a strategy for helping young workers build retirement income assets during their entire work lives so that the unintended burdens that have fallen on the Social Security, pension, and public assistance programs can be eased and made more manageable in the future. Lastly, he describes the roles that government agencies, businesses, educational institutions, foundations, and older people themselves can play in carrying out the jobs and retirement income strategies.
Book Synopsis The future for older workers by : Loretto, Wendy
Download or read book The future for older workers written by Loretto, Wendy and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2009-04-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
