Description
Summary:碩士 === 崑山科技大學 === 企業管理研究所 === 105 === With the development of economic growth, the improvement in living standard, and the progress in healthcare, the impact of declining birth rate has led to the reduction of the labor force, and the influence of population ageing has resulted in high dependency ratios. These dilemmas have made our labor force facing the challenge of aging the labor structure. We explores the working course and experience via the qualitative research methods, also investigates the employment motive and organizational commitment of middle-aged and older employees. We conducted a qualitative dyadic research by interviewing employees and supervisors. First, we performed semi-structured interviews with six middle-aged and older employees, and then we collected information form supervisors in the focus group interviews. The propositions can be summarized as follows: (1) About property environment or to create the property value and changing the occupation form, (2) Economic considerations are the main motivations for middle-aged and older employees, (3) Middle-aged and older employees have lower level of turnover rate, (4) Middle-aged and older employees have less efficient, (5) The grassroots employees with economic needs have less commitment to the organization. In the end, we provide three recommendations for management to current labor market of middle-aged and older: (1) The main consideration of job interview for middle-aged and older employees should be its technology and professional compliance with business needs. Also the experience feedback system should be established. (2) Use Government hiring incentives for employers to enhance middle-aged and older employees the willing to reemployment. (3) Suitable vocational training assessment for middle-aged and older employees should be carried out to have more links in job training and employment.
