摘要:Due to an ongoing increase in the average life expectancy and a decrease in the average birth rate, there are less active people that are of working age in the labor market. However, this year's Covid-19 pandemic highlighted that older workers are much more vulnerable in an ever-changing labor market. It is therefore essential to analyze how employers create working conditions for more senior employees during a pandemic. As well as the employment opportunities of older workers in the longer term. Applied methods of analysis: scientific literature and analysis of various documents, interviews, and analysis of the research results, their interpretation. The study found that older employees had difficulty adapting to changed working conditions and faced a higher risk of health issues. The article thus showed that existing stereotypes among employers limit the employability of older people.
