Full Description
This timely book examines the impacts of an aging workforce, emphasizing how and why organizations choose policies to address this demographic shift. Peter Berg and Matthew Piszczek analyze interviews from top managers, supervisors, human resource managers, and worker representatives to explore how organizations are responding to workforce aging.
Drawing on human capital theory and employment relations theory, Berg and Piszczek explain how different organizational stakeholders have varied goals for managing human capital against the background of an older workforce. They posit that the pursuit of these objectives via Human Resource Management practices is shaped by diverse influences spanning stakeholder power, the organization of work, and country-level institutions like retirement policy and collective bargaining. Ultimately, the book develops a framework for human capital management as a form of age management and adopts an employment relations approach that underlines multiple stakeholders and their interests.
This book is a crucial resource for scholars and students of business and management, human resource management, employment relations, and sociology and social policy. It is also a beneficial read for general managers for its practical guidance and breakdown of how institutional environments affect organizational policy.
