The increasing number of older employees in the federal government impacts your agency in terms of performance management, EEO complaints and workers' compensation. Preparing Federal Agencies for an Aging Workforce offers guidance to better understand how cross-generational differences play out in the workplace, affecting recruitment, retention, mentoring programs, employee interactions, and more.
Plus, you discover how to handle both the challenges and opportunities unique to an aging workforce, including ways to:
- Prevent conflict among different generations in the office
- Train younger supervisors to successfully manage older employees
- Help older employees from aggravating pre-existing or naturally degenerative conditions
- And more!
What's more, you learn how the courts and the EEOC have ruled on cases involving age discrimination — so you know what actions can land your agency in legal hot water! And, you get a quick quiz that can be given to agency supervisors to determine how well everyone understands the implications of managing an aging workforce.
