EMPLOYMENT PROBLEMS OF OLDER WORKERS

Glede na opazne demografske spremembe se trend staranja prebivalstva povečuje, zaradi tega pa je na trgu delovne sile vse več starejših iskalcev zaposlitve. Problematika zaposlovanja starejše delovne sile je velik problem politike zaposlovanja in celotne sodobne družbe. Starejša delovna sila bi morala delati več, ostati čim dlje na trgu delovne sile in se čim kasneje upokojevati, kar pa bi lahko dosegli samo z pozitivno promocijo, s katero bi lahko v veliki meri podrli zelo zakoreninjene stereotipe, tabuje in predsodke o starejših delavcih.According to the notable demographic changes the trend of population aging is increasing, therefore there are more and more older job seekers at the labour market. Employment issues for older workers are a huge problem of employment policy and of the entire modern society. Older workforce should work longer, stay longer at the labour market and to retire as late as possible. We could achieve that by positive promotion which would break inveterate stereotypes, taboos and prejudice about older workers to a big extent
