Problem Isn't Age Work and Older Americans

'œSupported by the National Commission for Employment Policy and the Employment and Training Administration of the US Department of Labor, these 12 analytic studies by 25 authors use different data sets to examine the factors that explain the labor market experiences of older American workers. Quantative estimates ascribe work-related advantages and problems of older workers to race, sex, health, education, tenure, seniority, mobility, and other factors that interact with age. Two introductory chapters provide the labor market statistical context and the issues and findings of the book. A concluding chapter integrates the findings with other research to provide policy implications. There is a useful index and a 125-item bibliography. Highly recommended for senior undergraduate and graduate libraries.'' ChoiceSandell, Steven H. is the author of 'Problem Isn't Age Work and Older Americans' with ISBN 9780275923716 and ISBN 0275923711.
