Also, “Technology, employment and ageing: Early retirement policies in France,” paper presented at the International Congress of Gerontology, New York, July, 1985, and a book to be published in 1987. In our publications, we have compared conditions of older workers in France, U.S.A., Japan, USSR and Israel.

  2. For this age category we restricted our study to the employment aspect. Demographic aspects, family life, marital relations, health, leisure and other aspects have been examined in other works.

Drucker,Managing in turbulent times, New York, Harper and Row, 1980, etc. Concrete measures that industries could take in order to include the older workers in the management of human resources have been described in other works.
