Abstract

The aging of population and workforce has significantly impacted living conditions in society and organizations around the world. This scenario represents a challenge for public policymakers and for the labor market, whose future depends on the maintenance of the work capacity of the older workers and their continued participation in the labour market. In this context, age management policies are increasingly important as they play a crucial role in increasing and sustaining the participation of these workers in the labor market. This theoretical essay aims to discuss age management in the Brazilian context. Specifically, it seeks to present the concept of age management and its challenges for the organizations in Brazil. Age management has been defined as the best way to strategically deal with the changes resulting from the aging of the population and consequent changes in the labor market. We argue, in this study, that the phenomenon of aging has specific characteristics in Brazil, a country with a collectivist trait in which intergenerational affective-moral-financial responsibility is the main issue.

巴西背景下的年龄管理:一个理论讨论

人口和劳动力的老龄化对世界各地的社会和组织的生活条件产生了重大影响。这种情况对公共政策制定者和劳动力市场来说是一个挑战，劳动力市场的未来取决于老年工人的工作能力的维持及其对劳动力市场的持续参与。在这种情况下，年龄管理政策越来越重要，因为它们在增加和维持这些工人参与劳动力市场方面发挥着至关重要的作用。这篇理论文章旨在探讨巴西背景下的年龄管理。具体而言，它试图介绍年龄管理的概念及其对巴西各组织的挑战。年龄管理被定义为从战略上应对人口老龄化和随之而来的劳动力市场变化所带来的变化的最佳方式。在这项研究中，我们认为老龄化现象在巴西具有特定的特征，巴西是一个具有集体主义特征的国家，代际情感道德经济责任是主要问题。
