The Future of Polish Labour Market and the Issue of Work Motivation in Older People

The negative demographic tendencies will affect the conditions of labour market. If the workers’ activity rate doesn’t rise, the total number of workers will decrease dramatically.

“…The factors and reasons for extending the working life of older people in retirement age are diverse. On the one hand, there is a group that indicates the lower importance of factors of financial motivation and job stability (Łaszkiewicz, Bojanowska 2017) and higher job satisfaction, and on the other one that needs to ensure or increase a sufficient income and pension base (European Commission, Eurostat 2020), or preferring the well-being of state-guaranteed social benefits: financial benefits, health care, the opportunity to reconcile work and family responsibilities (Aidukaite, Blaziene 2021). The decision to work at an older age may stem from self-confidence in one's own work performance in conjunction with adequate health (You, Lee 2021;Kalenkoski, McCarty 2021), in flexibility of work attendance (Principi et al 2018), in a vision of qualified, decent and sustainable work that makes sense (Fournier et al 2018), but also for fear of losing dignity by acquiring retired status for men (Daye 2005) or lower income (Principi et al 2018;Moskvina 2022).…”

“…Several factors can influence such a decision. Among the most important factors can be considered their state of health (Ćwirlej-Sozańska et al, 2018; Neary et al, 2019;Cristea et al, 2020), motivational factors (Łaszkiewicz & Bojanowska, 2017;Bohorquez et al, 2020;You & Lee, 2021) and satisfaction with the work performed and the work environment (Raziq & Maulabakhsh, 2015;Lakic, 2019;Homocianu et al, 2020).…”

“…Today, the retraining of citizens of age groups is relevant not only for Russia. For example, in European countries, negative demographic trends (population ageing) are becoming noticeable, which in the long-term forecast will necessarily affect the labor and employment market [6], [7]. Therefore, prolonging the active work of older persons is a serious government task [8].…”
