What You'll Learn

Within the Singapore context, with the extension of re-employment age and the moderation of the inflow of foreign workers, and with human capital considered one of most critical resources of the country, the ability to optimise this reservoir of older workers is pertinent. In GER529 Managing an Ageing Workforce, students will address the implications of an ageing workforce within organisations in Singapore and the region. They will review local and international research evidences concerning older workers, and increase their understanding of the age and life-stage associated changes and concerns of older workers. Students will be taught the principles for designing a framework to integrate older workers into an organisation, in cognizance of the aforementioned changes experienced by them, and within the context of an increasingly multigenerational workforce, with diverse needs, motivations and interests. Additionally, students will be equipped with the key competencies to motivate, develop and counsel older workers.
