Abstract:

This research was carried out with the aim of determining their attitudes towards older employment according to the industry situation in which employers operate. The work has been carried out by 18 employees working in Burdur. The research method has been used. In this framework, employers’ attitudes towards older employment are gathered into four categories in the context of efficiency, adaptability to innovations, their roles in stress management at workplace and continuity behavior. The study found that employers would not work efficiently in terms of physical strength, that older workers were resistant to innovation, that young people were less stressed at work, and that they often did not use leave. The attitudes of employers to the employment of the elderly sectors may be different. It is recommended to provide legal regulations and incentives for the increase in older employment in the study, to ensure that older people are able to improve their ability to adapt to technological developments in the workplace, to develop the attitudes of employers and employees regarding the provision of older employment.
