A Case Study of Advanced Policy for the Promotion of Re-employment
The federal government in the US, especially in the State of Kentucky is taking measures to ensure that re-employment of people in the middle age of between 40 to 60 is effectively in place (AGS 59-84). The first policy that the government has put in place in promoting re-employment is through the promotion of stable job security by pushing the work-age limit up to 65years. This enables the middle age people between 40 to 60 years to have the chance of being employed again in case they loose their jobs before they reach 65 years. The second government policy that is used by the federal government in the State of Kentucky in the US is creating awareness to all public and private companies about the importance of retaining old workers (Austin 39). This enables the owners of the companies to retain their workers at all costs since they are aware of the unemployment crises facing the state (EEUS 28).
The third policy that the government of America is using to promote re-employment is the development of a regional tendency to improve the rate of economic growth produced by the region (Corson&Decker 45). The US found out the State of Kentucky has a considerable number of employed people in the middle age of 40 to 60, making it a state of great potential in terms of revenue production (Balducchi 29). This made the US to channel attention to the region to ensure that there were mechanisms put in place to support the work of different companies (Dickinson et. al. 28). It all happened in a bid to ensure that the companies in different industries continued to maximize efficiency (Card et. al. 27). This would in turn make the companies perpetually demand for the middle age workers since the target output for the companies would always be high to meet (Grubb 37). Consequently, the middle age people between the age of 40 and 60 would not lose employment (Eberts 56).
Similarly, in Asia, the governments in the different states across the continent such as South Korea have devised advanced policies for the promotion of re-employment (Emsellem 49). One of the government policies that are mainly undertaken in Asian states is the promotion of diverse work styles for the elderly (Berger 39). This means that a single person is taught different works to make sure that he or she can oversee more than one work responsibility and thus enjoying the freedom of different job tasks in the same post (Kornfeld & Bloom 168-97). Secondly, the companies in these regions are enabling work experience programs at work (Katz & Meyer 45-72). These work experience programs aim at honing the skills of the different workers of middle age so that they continue delivering quality services at work (Kruse & Schure 31-66). These programs can include short refresher courses that help the middle age employees to be professional at all times.
Lastly, another advanced government policy for the promotion of re-employment in the US and Asia is the prohibition of age limits in job applications. This has helped the middle age between 40 to 60 years since they can send applications to any company and still get a chance for employment (Meyer 37). It is unlike before when there were restrictions in age limits and some old people were always sidelined in companies since the companies supposedly wanted fresh energy, which are the young people (Wandner 67).
