The new government wants to relieve the budget by increasing the factual retirement age. But the announcement alone will not do anything, says occupational psychologist Gerhard click In the courier interview. The necessary framework and a different attitude to age and work is also needed. Not only the state is required, but above all the companies.
DELIVERY MAN: The government wants to bring the factual retirement age and the employment rate of older people. How does she do that?
Gerhard Click: Only the mere announcement that we should all work longer will do nothing. The strategy behind it is still missing. We need long -term concepts to accompany people healthy to the pension.
It takes appropriate framework and every person, every industry is different. Not everyone can be sheared over a comb. Basically, people want to work and are happy about the foundation, appreciation and social exchange.
The working pressure has increased enormously. Many people are currently fleeing gainful employment when they can afford it …
Yes, the trained Austrian already counts the days to the pension. This is a lot because of how positive or negative the attitude towards gainful employment is and what the working conditions are. Only if they are good, someone likes to do their jobs and be valued at work will they not flee to the pension. Here you have to start and create incentives.
Above all, you see the companies in duty?
The fact that many companies still have not understood the force of demography shows the fact that annual announcements are the order of the day. Companies that do not take care of their older workforce will have an acute lack of staff in five to ten years. Unfortunately, the business thinking here and older employees are primarily viewed as a cost factor.
