By 2050, the world will have two billion older people who will outnumber children. This means that we are an aging population and this has deep implications on our availability of labour. This book demonstrates how retired people can be used to avoid a talent crunch. The opinions of trade unions, researchers, public agencies, private employers, managers and workers have been included here. They believe that by making a few adjustments, older people can work beyond their retirement age. This book throws up the challenges of this situation and is sure to interest managers, employers, students and framers of labour laws.
