Nowadays older people who need employment have to compete with younger people. What problem does this cause and what are the solutions?
In many countries,
job
shortness is one of the serious problems that need to be solved. Due to this
, the employment competition
between elderly people
and youngsters has become more severe as time goes by. However
, there are still some ways that can solve this
problem.
First
of all, high demands for job
recruitment can trigger generation conflicts between different aged people
. If people
believe the reason why they couldn't be chosen at the job
market was just because of their age
, then
they might blame others with a different range of age
who were picked as employers. For example
, in my country, a few people
who had failed to get a job
posted some content cursing other candidates whose age
was different from theirs. Furthermore
, the severe competition
can make it hard for the young students who just graduated from university to get a job
immediately due to their lack of experience. Considering that usually young people
do not have a wide range of careers, it would be harsh for them to compete with other old job
seekers who have rich experiences.
On the other hand
, there are some ways that can solve this
problem. Firstly
, the candidates should be employed based on their age
range. To be more specific, if the superiors hire people
with specific ages such
as those who are over the fifties only, then
by narrowing the candidate's ages, there would be less severe competition
. Another method is to extend the retirement age
. Considering the expected lifelong has increased, it should be changed properly so that those who are eager to work more and can do their work under the perfect condition can work more. Once they can be performing more in their occupation, as there would be fewer candidates in job
markets, the competition
would be less severe.
In conclusion, even though there are some complicated factors that make the job
employment competition
more tricky, if the employment system and the retirement age
can be changed, it would be beneficial for everyone regardless of their age
