Attracting retirees to apply: desired organizational characteristics of bridge employment
研究三种组织政策(灵活排班、平等就业机会声明、知识转移机会)对120名有意从事退休后工作的老年求职者吸引力的影响,发现灵活排班和平等就业机会声明有正向作用,且三者组合效果大于单独效果之和。
Abstract This research examined the impact of three organizational policies on applicant attraction of 120 older workers with an interest in bridge employment (i.e., work after formal retirement). Using a mock newspaper ad to manipulate policies, scheduling flexibility, and a targeted equal employment opportunity (EEO) statement positively influenced older workers' attraction to the organization, while opportunities to transfer knowledge had little impact. A significant and positive three‐way interaction suggested that older workers are sensitive to the strength of the overall message such that the effects of all three policies when seen together were greater than the sum of their individual effects.
