Long term economic impacts of disease on older workers to 2030: Costs to government and individuals and opportunities for intervention

该项目将填补澳大利亚关于未来健康状况的证据的重大空白，这些证据将使老年工人被挡在劳动力市场之外，并降低他们自己的短期和长期生活标准，从而减少政府可用资金。我们将讨论澳大利亚劳动力市场人口结构发生根本性变化所产生的最重要的问题之一，也是政府在2002年和2007年发布代际报告后经常提出的问题。该项目还将审查可长期改善老年工人健康和增加劳动力参与率的干预措施。

This project will fill substantial gaps in Australian evidence about the health conditions of the future that will keep older workers out of the labour market and diminish their own immediate and long-term livings standards, thereby reducing funds available to government. We will address one of the most significant issues resulting from the fundamental changes to the demography of the Australian labour market and one that is regularly raised by the government following the release of the 2002 and 2007 Intergenerational Reports. This project will also examine the interventions that would improve the health of older workers and increase labour force participation over the long term.
