dc.description.abstract | To explore the role of older workers in Manitoba and in a broader context, The
Manitoba Older Worker Project (MOWP) explores the trends in the literature
and the experiences of both employers and employees. A key component of this
effort focuses specifically on the salient literature with the intent of providing a
sound, Manitoba-specific perspective with supporting data that examines the:
• Needs and experiences of older workers in Manitoba;
• Perceptions of older workers by employers and their desire and ability to
retain them; and
• Current policies and options for policy reform which would encourage the
benefits of an older workforce.
Specifically, this project is concerned with older workers 55 years of age or more
who are working, unemployed or retired. The report is geared towards
supporting policy and program development aimed at maintaining an older
workforce that will meet the specific labour market needs of Manitoba. | en_US |
