Age of change. The impact of
Australia’s ageing workforce.
The Rising Median Age of Australia’s
Workforce and its Long Term
Implications
The current median age of today’s worker is 40, however as Australia’s
population ages, it is facing a major workforce shift as an increasing number of
mature age workers elect to stay in the workforce longer. With the number of
individuals aged 60-64 expected to double by 2016, Australia is experiencing
a paradigm shift in its workplace culture. Recent legislative changes to the
pension age will create a different set of legal obligations for employers,
notwithstanding the opportunities and benefits created through an increase in
the diversity of our workforce. This impact will drive far reaching changes for
employees and our social infrastructure. For employers, the need to manage
this transition is increasingly critical.
The myriad issues facing employers transcend the usual HR complexities,
with implications on how best to harness knowledge and experience and
integrate across the generational divide. An aging workforce has much to
offer. Experience, intellectual property and the emotional intelligence that
comes with age, offers a depth of skill that can only be gained over time. When
combined with the youthful dynamism of younger employees, this combination
creates a rich pool of knowledge, skills and talent that offers far reaching
rewards for both employees and employers.
The key is in ensuring that organisations employ
the right strategies to engage with, and harness the
expertise of their ageing workforce. To ignore this
trend raises concerns for the medium and long term
human and economic costs that will result from not
having the right strategies in place to appropriately
manage this powerhouse of knowledge and skill.
