随着世界各国人口老龄化，预期寿命的延长意味着患病和丧失能力的可能性更大。与此同时，人口趋势正在改变传统的老年人护理安排。鉴于很大比例的护理人员在户外工作，就业和护理责任之间的紧张关系可能会加剧。然而，老年人护理责任与工作成果之间的关系尚未得到充分研究，特别是在管理文献中，而且结果尚无定论。本文分析了自 1995 年以来发表在同行评审学术期刊上的 31 项关于老年护理与工作之间关系的实证研究。尽管当前文献中存在方法论局限性，但已经发现了许多值得注意的进展，这些进展对未来的研究方向以及组织响应员工老年护理需求的方式具有影响。
As countries around the world experience the graying of their populations, longer life expectancies mean greater possibility of illness and incapacitation. At the same time, demographic trends are altering the traditional arrangements for eldercare. Given that a high percentage of caregivers are employed outside the home, the tension between employment and caregiving responsibilities is likely to increase. However, the relationship between eldercare responsibilities and work outcomes is understudied, especially in the management literature, and the results are inconclusive. This article analyzes 31 empirical studies on the relationship between eldercare and work published in peer-reviewed academic journals since 1995. Although methodological limitations exist in the current literature, a number of noteworthy advances have been identified that have implications for future research directions and the ways in which organizations respond to the eldercare needs of their employees.
