Beschreibung
The research results described in the monograph have proven that the intellectual capital of the 65+ workers plays an important role for employers. They are perceived as competent and experienced persons. Senior workers can be employed as freelance experts, part-time workers, individually negotiated work agreements (I-deals),flexible employment schemes etc. They can be employed for such assignments as recruitment of staff, as coachers, mentors, service providers to older clientele and on advisory positions.
