OCTOBER 3 — Malaysia officially became an ageing nation in 2022, sparking intense debate about its retirement age and the role mature employees can play in a modern evolving...
Yet the real debate should not be whether society needs employees to stay in the workforce longer — there are real and broad benefits in that — but how we can give that older population the skills it needs to keep working.when 7 per cent of its population is aged 65 years and above. In 2022, Malaysia’s rate jumped to 7.3 per cent.
Many digital immigrants are older workers. As living costs rise and retirement savings dwindle, recruiters see more seniors trying to re-enter the workforce. For many older people, this isn’t just about financial necessity; it’s also about passion and a commitment to staying productive and engaged beyond their retirement age.
Operating with a multigenerational workforce is easier for companies than dealing with shortages because of retirements and retraining existing employees are more cost-effective than hiring new ones. And, when a company invests in its employees, it signals value, fosters retention and helps attract talent.
Adult learners prefer e-learning — a form of education that uses the internet, electronic media or digital technologies — but some older learners face challenges engaging. Developing online courses designed for older learners might help them overcome the traditional issues of engaging with adult education. Geragogy guidelines for training senior learners have been developed to create inclusive learning experiences.
As Malaysia’s retirement age undergoes review, businesses would be wise to consider what fosters an inclusive and supportive learning environment for older workers. Lifelong learning helps older adults stay active and satisfied and helps delay dependency.
