推迟退休年龄面临着经济压力,但雇主仍然不愿意雇用老年工人。我们在现场对两家大公司的员工进行的实验以及在传统实验室环境中对学生和退休人员进行的实验中,研究了大三学生和大四学生的行为比较。我们发现,老年人并不比年轻人更厌恶风险,而且通常更合作;初级员工和高级员工都对竞争反应强烈。这意味着,在职业生涯即将结束时制定额外的激励措施来激励和留住年长员工可能是有益的。
There is economic pressure towards the postponement of the retirement age, but employers are still reluctant to employ older workers. We investigate the comparative behavior of juniors and seniors in experiments conducted both onsite with the employees of two large firms and in a conventional laboratory environment with students and retirees. We show that seniors are no more risk averse than juniors and are typically more cooperative; both juniors and working seniors respond strongly to competition. The implication is that it may be beneficial to define additional incentives near the end of the career to motivate and retain older workers.
