摘要：There is a need for an expanded perspective on age management that draws attention to the interaction between employers and employees in order to understand organisational capability for a prolonged working life. The way in which workplaces are managed is of central importance to people’s ability and willingness to continue to work. At the individual level, the timing of retirement depends on the individual’s health, job satisfaction, competence, social inclusion and family life, as well as pension benefits. These are conclusions from previous studies on age management, and they indicate that the individual’s decision to stay in a workplace and ability to work longer depends on a complex interaction between the person’s preferences and health as well as social networks and work environment (see e.g. Brooke & Taylor, 2005; Furunes, Mykletun & Solem, 2011).
