Abstract

"With the long-term trend toward earlier retirement slowing down, and the majority of older workers remaining in employment up to and beyond statutory retirement ages, it is increasingly important that we understand how to react to these changes. Bridge Employment patterns and activities have changed greatly over the past decade yet there is little information about the benefits of the various different forms this can take, both for employees and employers.The reasons for Bridge Employment are diverse, but the benefits both for the individuals and for organizations are considerable: from satisfaction in retirement, to financial security and economic well-being in later life, and the retention of skills and experience by organizations. Drawing on international research expertise, this book offers a comprehensive overview and analysis of bridge employment in Europe and the US, and summarises the psychological, psychosocial, organizational and social benefits for employees, employers and society.Reflecting the current debate in many countries about the ageing labour force and costs of retirement, this book provokes debate and reflection for both organizational decisions and public policies. It will provide a fascinating read for scholars and researchers in HR, organizational studies and public policy"--

Abstract

In recent years, the retirement age for public pensions has increased across many countries, and additional increases are in progress or under discussion in many more. The seventh stage of an ongoing research project studying the relationship between social security programs and labor force participation, Social Security Programs and Retirement around the World: The Capacity to Work at Older Ages explores people’s capacity to work beyond the current retirement age. It brings together an international team of scholars from twelve countries—Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States—to analyze this issue. Contributors find that many—but not all—individuals have substantial capacity to work at older ages. However, they also consider how policymakers might divide gains in life expectancy between years of work and retirement, as well as the main impediments to longer work life. They consider factors that influence the demand for older workers, as well as the evolution of health and disability status, which may affect labor supply from the older population.

Abstract

This important book reports a successful programme to tackle the social evil of child labour which was implemented by the author in a rural area of Andhra Pradesh. Without going into the pros and cons of child labour, the book is premised on the belief that it should be eliminated and emphasises that the only way this can be achieved is through education. Pramila Bhargava brings in the voices of parents, teachers, farmers, and the children themselves. In conclusion, she distils her experience and presents a cost-effective, practical and viable model which can be used by anyone engaged in tackl

Abstract

This book offers a challenge to the assumption that there is appropriate employment available for people who are expected to retire later, and the gender-neutral way the expectation for extending working lives is presented in most policy-making circles.
