U radu se analizira tržište rada starijih radnika u kontekstu što dužeg ostanka na tržištu rada u Republici Hrvatskoj. Slijedom nepovoljne demografske situacije, dužeg životnog vijeka te ugroženosti sustava mirovinskog osiguranja, u proteklih nekoliko desetljeća u velikom broju zemalja provedene su inicijative produženja radnog vijeka. Analiza je pokazala da stariji radnici u Republici Hrvatskoj, unatoč nižoj radnoj aktivnosti u usporedbi s drugim zemljama, imaju dodatnog radnog kapaciteta za duži ostanak na tržištu rada koji pritom ne bi ugrozio zaposlenost mlađih skupina. Dokazano je i da tržište rada Republike Hrvatske nije prilagođeno starijim dobnim skupinama, te da najveće šanse za duži ostanak na tržištu rada, imaju visokoobrazovani i oni boljeg materijalnog statusa, odnosno oni koji općenito imaju najviše prilika, dok oni slabijeg obrazovanja, socioekonomskog statusa i zdravlja, iako možda ne žele napustiti tržište rada, imaju male mogućnosti, odnosno šanse za dužim ostankom na tržištu rada. Ključne riječi: stariji radnici, radni vijek, tržište rada, Hrvatska * Autori zahvaljuju anonimnim recenzentima na korisnim komentarima i prijedlozima koji su doprinijeli kvaliteti rada.

The paper analyzes labour market services, as one of the labor market interventions. Labour market services represent all activities of the public employment service and other publicly funded services for jobseekers, which include counseling the unemployed, mediation between workers and employers, informing, monitoring the unemployed and sanctioning in the case of non-compliance, and are considered to be the most cost-effective labour market intervention. Although in recent decades the main focus of labour market policy has been on measures of active labour market policy (such as training or employment incentives), in recent years, with the actualization of the activation concept, labour market services have taken their turn. This paper presents the main features, development, advantages and disadvantages of this intervention in the Republic of Croatia and the opinion of the main actors of this intervention, the Employment Advisors of the Croatian Employment Service. Key words: labour market services, counseling the unemployed, labour market, Croatia.
