THE ROLE OF AGEISM IN THE RECRUITMENT AND MANAGEMENT OF PERSONNEL
533
Abstract
The phenomenon of ageism is considered, especially in view of the shortage of young people entering the job market. Employers need to overcome their ignorance and prejudice and consider the undoubted advantages of employing older workers if they wish to fill their job vacancies. The article advocates speedy legislation to outlaw ageism and thus restore older people to their rightful place as a valued part of the workforce.
