Description

Current demographic trends, combined with policies aimed at extending working life, are contributing to an increase in the proportion of "older" employees in French companies.
The current demographic trends, combined with policies aimed at extending working life, are contributing to an increase in the proportion of "older" employees in French companies. In this context, enabling everyone to age well at work and to find their place throughout their career has become a major challenge.
 

Les tendances démographiques actuelles, associées aux politiques visant
à l’allongement de la vie professionnelle, participent à l’augmentation de la proportion de salariés « âgés » dans les entreprises en France. Dans ce contexte, permettre à chacun de bien vieillir au travail et de trouver sa place tout au long de son parcours en entreprise est devenu un enjeu de taille.
