摘要:The aim of the paper is to present
the active population ageing
strategy in Slovenia with a special
emphasis on quality ageing and
intergenerational solidarity as
proposed solutions to the challenges
of long-living society and the
process of ageing. The rising life
expectancy is certainly one of the
greatest achievements of the 21stcentury
society. However, ageing
populations are posing new
challenges to humanity that will
need to be addressed. Demographic
trends show that life
expectancy will continue to
increase in future. Consequently,
retired people will be receiving
pensions for longer periods of time
whereas fertility rates will decline
along with the size of total
population and working-age
population. This will put pressure
on the public expenditure on
pensions and disability allowances,
health insurance and long-term
care funding, which will jeopardise
economic growth. Slovenia will
have to develop a new attitude
towards retirement and recognise
the productive potential of older
people who deserve to be trained
up, retrained or kept in the
company. We need to learn to
appreciate not only the briskness
and agility but also the wisdom
and experience of workers.
