Older Workers and Labour Market Adjustment: The Case of Ansett Airlines

通过跟踪安赛特航空公司前雇员在裁员后5年的职业生涯，这项研究将促进对全球服务业成熟熟练工人劳动力市场调整的了解。这项工作将提高对劳动力市场不平等、边际就业以及年龄、家庭环境和工人搬迁找工作意愿之间的关系的理解。通过解决两个国家研究重点--老年工人参与劳动力市场的障碍和澳大利亚移民的技术工人的动机--该项目将有助于制定劳动力市场政策，以适应全球化经济中老龄化劳动力的需求。

By tracing over 5 years the post-retrenchment careers of former Ansett Airlines employees, the study will advance knowledge of labour market adjustments for mature skilled workers from a global service industry. The work will improve understanding of labour market inequality, marginal employment and the relationship between age, household circumstances and workers' willingness to relocate in search of work. By addressing two National Research Priorities - the barriers to labour market participation of older workers and the motivations of skilled workers who emigrate from Australia - the project will contribute to the development of labour market policies attuned to the demands of an ageing workforce in a globalising economy.
