Older Workers, Active Ageing, and the Future of Work is a significant book that provides a comparative and comprehensive analysis of legislative developments and discourses relating to older workers, prolonged working lives, and the future of work, which are addressed under the themes of fundamental rights developments, dynamics in non-discrimination and employment protection, and advancements in active ageing. The major trend of population ageing that can be seen in the European Union (EU) and most other advanced economies has a substantial impact on social cohesion, intergenerational solidarity, economic development and the long-term sustainability of health and pension systems. For labour law, industrial relations, and collective bargaining, the implications of the ageing workforce pose specific challenges.
