Organisational change and older workers’ training: evidence from a matched employer-employee survey
Lisa Magnani / School of Economics, University of New South Wales
In economies where labour forces are rapidly ageing, have technological and organisational innovations affected the structure of employment and, as a consequence, do they hurt the employment prospects of older workers? This study finds that although technological innovation at the industry level causes economic obsolescence among older workers, industry level technological diffusion increases the oldest workers’ training opportunities.
