Abstract

Israel is experiencing accelerated workforce aging and increasing retirement age that began in the last two decades. Aging workers suffer from increased illness and impairment rates, challenging employing organizations with reduced work capacity. Occupational health practitioners often assist employers in accommodating these challenges. However, insufficient evidence on prognostic factors, organizational practices, and age management tools hamper successful accommodation. Research on the organizational perceptions of aging workers is also limited.
