A proper intervention should be planned on the reduction of age discrimination, the
promotion of advanced learning, improving ergonomics for older workers adaptation
of working time. Retirement plans should be provided to promote favorable conditions
for a successful collaboration of young and old people.
Novelli suggests that to accommodate older workers with their rich experiences and
wise judgement skills we can make some changes in the work timings like making
a provision for part-time or alternative work schedules, to allow older workers more
flexibility in their work life as they age.
This is a more recent method of work scheduling. It allows two or more individual
to split a traditional 40 hours a week job i.e. one person can work from 8 am to
12 noon and another person can work from 1 pm to 5 pm on the same job.
Otherwise one person can work one day and another can work on another day i.e.
alternative day. Two part time employees share one full time job. Job sharing is
desirable for people who want to work only part time or when job markets are very
tight.
The advantage for the organisation on this arrangement is that it can accommodate
the preferences of a broader range of employees and can also draw upon the talents
of more than one individual in a given job (The best example for this is the work of
a receptionist where two peoples work is not interdependent and also does not
matter greatly for the customers). We also have other profession like doctors, police,
personnel firemen, etc. doing this kind of job). It is like having two heads and paying
for one. You can have more workers for less pay and no benefits be given since they
are on part time. It gives the employees more flexibility and freedom. It increases the
motivation and satisfaction for people who cannot work for 40 hours in a week. The
major disadvantages are to find a compatible pair to share the job, which can
coordinate the intricacies of one job. However, there seem to be more success in
these types of arrangement.
