Abstract:

Abstract Due to global demographic shifts, the issue of older workers’ health and productive aging is becoming much more pressing and Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa is not left behind. Productive aging involves providing a safe and healthy work environment for everyone using strategies that allow workers to function optimally at all ages, hence this study assessed the barriers to creating age friendly workplaces among older workers in Nigeria. A community based study was conducted among workers in Federal Government establishments aged 60 years and above. Using a Focus Group Disc

Abstract:

The United Nations identified decent work and economic growth as a sustainable development goal for 2030. Decent work is a term that sums up aspirations for people in their working lives. One of the factors that influences the achievement of decent work is aging. This article examines how aspects of aging and organizational factors affect work ability across the lifespan and throughout one’s work career. Additionally, the critical issue of worker physical mobility was also addressed as a practical limitation to functional aging. Through our investigation, we identified gaps in the literature w

Background: According to the World Health Organization, healthy aging is the process of developing and maintaining functional abilities that make the elderly happy. The increase in the elderly population requires more attention. In particular, health services at the primary health care level face problems related to the limited capacity of overall health services, especially in terms of health promotion and preventive health issues. It is necessary to improve the quality of health care services for the elderly to prevent greater health problems among the elderly population.Objectives: Understa

With the rapid growth of the aging workforce, age-related conditions may negatively influence overall workplace safety and health among these workers and their employers. In this summary, we have outlined details about visual acuity, glare sensitivity, and contrast sensitivity, which are common age-related vision changes that can potentially affect their occupational safety. The occupational health nurse is well positioned to address these concerns by instructing aging workers about potential development of vision change and ensuring they receive the appropriate vision screening.

Abstract:

Background The rapid increase of the aging population is pushing many national governments to reshape retirement legislation in order to extend older adults’ working life. Once retired, older adults can be invaluable resources for the community as family carers, as volunteers, or by returning to work. Healthy aging is one of the main conditions for being able to work longer and being active after retirement. The latter, indeed, represents a very sensitive life transition, which can entail psychological and social difficulties. Interventions for promoting older workers’ health and well-being an

Abstract:

Abstract Many older Americans have decided to remain in the labor market beyond the traditional retirement age, suggesting the need for companies to consider human resource initiatives to retain and support the aging workforce. Applying active aging concepts, which emphasize older adults’ active roles through participation in social and economic activities for healthy later life, to the workplace could be helpful for developing programs that enhance the health, well-being, and work outcomes of older workers.

Abstract:

Successful aging is a prominent framework within gerontology, yet an understanding of how aging adults define “successful aging” is often missing in the social work discourse around what it means to age well. This cross-sectional, exploratory study used an online survey to explore community-dwelling adults’ (aged 55+; n=471) definition of successful aging, the underlying components across all definitions, and any differences in components based on whether or not the adults identified as aging successfully. Summative content analysis yielded five main themes and 13 sub-themes for those who iden

Abstract This study aimed to identify accelerometer measured daily physical activity patterns and to examine how they associate with health-related physical fitness among 258 participants (mean age 62.4 years, SD 1.0) from the Finnish Retirement and Aging Study. Wrist-worn ActiGraph accelerometer was used and health-related physical fitness measures included body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular fitness. Based on latent class trajectory analysis, six different patterns of daily physical activity was identified on workdays and two on days off. Having low activity throughout t

Abstract:

Vitality at work is an important factor for organizations to build a healthier, more engaged, sustainable, and productive workforce. The organizational and societal relevance of vitality at work is high, particularly with regard to an aging and more diverse workforce. This Special Issue focusses on what might be called sustainable performance at work: Maximizing work performance as well as worker health and well-being through employee vitality. Currently, there are still many gaps of knowledge with regard to the relationship between employee vitality and sustainable performance at work. Exampl

Abstract:

The work ability can be conceptualized as the physical and mental well-being of workers, which enables them to develop their work according to the demands of the occupation and their state of health 1. Work ability comprises physical, psychological, and social capacities. It is influenced by demographic, socio-economic, environmental and life style factors.2 work ability should be seen from a framework that takes into account the interaction between work, lifestyle, health conditions and biological aging 3. Work ability can be considered as an important component of the broader concept of empl

Abstract:

Abstract Despite growing evidence of the increase in the aging population nationally, there continues to be a shortage of health and social care professionals who work with older adults. Some studies examine this phenomenon by looking at motivations that underlie commitment to geriatric careers. Others study commitment among those who are already geriatric professionals. Both the volume and diversity of the aging population challenge organizations to provide care. Drawing on 44 interviews, observations of 62 meetings, and a 5-year immersion, this organizational ethnography looks at commitment

AbstractThe aging workforce is likely to result in increasing numbers of workers with disabilities. The US Census Bureau projects that the 45- to 54- and 55- to 64-year-old population in the United States will grow by nearly 44.2 million (17%) and 35 million (39%) in the next 10 years (US Census Bureau, 2004). By the year 2010, this group will account for nearly half (44%) of the working age population (20–64), and the number of people with disabilities between the ages of 50 and 65 will almost double (Weathers, 2006).

Abstract:

Does working with frail and cognitively impaired older people, in addition to and in combination with psychological distress, lead to concerns about one’s own aging? We investigated whether aging anxiety (AA) and dementia worry (DW) systematically differed between N = 34 geriatric nurses and a comparison sample of N = 34 childcare workers. The samples did not differ with regards to sociodemographic characteristics, personality, life satisfaction, or dementia knowledge. A multivariate GLM analysis revealed a substantial effect of both work context (high vs. low exposure to aging/dementia; η2 =

Abstract. Late-career workers must remain employed for longer, but in doing so face the unique challenge of remaining active and productive at work while not disregarding the need to maintain health and plan for retirement, both of which are necessary for work longevity and successful aging. This study investigated whether work engagement, a motivator of proactive behavior in the work domain, would exhibit a dark side by acting as a de-motivator of proactive behavior in the health and retirement domains. Results from 1917 participants showed that one dimension of engagement, vigor, was positiv
