The Demand for Older Workers: Technology, Skill and Employment Opportunities

“生产性老龄化”政策是澳大利亚人口老龄化治理战略的核心。但人们对企业对老年员工需求的决定因素知之甚少。通过揭示技术变化对公司招聘和培训决策的影响，这项研究将极大地补充我们对老年工人就业机会有限的理解。通过这样做，它试图为长期政策辩论提供信息，说明如何最好地调整我们的经济，以适应当前主要的人口和技术发展。其结果将引起政策制定者、行业、倡导团体、工会和更广泛的社区的兴趣和利用。

"Productive ageing" policies are central to Australia's strategies for the governance of population ageing. But little is known about the determinants of firms' demand for older workers. By uncovering the impact that technological change has on firms' hiring and training decisions, this study will critically complement our understanding of older workers' constrained employment opportunities. In so doing it seeks to inform the long-term policy debate on how best to adjust our economy to the current major demographic and technological development. Its outcomes will be of interest and use to policy makers, industry, advocacy groups, unions and the wider community.
