A FIELD STUDY OF CHALLENGES FACED BY AGING WORKFORCE

Abstract

Over the next years and decades, both aging of population and workforce will be seen in developing and developed countries. Especially improvements in health care services and social services, increasing of life expectancy and decreasing the rates of infant mortality are the main reasons of population and workforce aging. Together with these developments, both governments and businesses will face challenges which are needed to overcome in the years ahead. In this study after a literature review on aging workforce, the survey, which was done in Yalova city, is studied in order to understand the approach of aging workforce. The survey was focused on the aging workforce’s challenges such as new technologies and in improvement of the skills. Although there is no much difference in the approaches between young and aging workers, the lack of conscious toward technological developments and improvements of skills for state-ofthe-art developments of aging workforce is striking and needs to be more examined
