Many of today's mid to later life adults hold changing expectations about work standards or regulations, yet many employers often aren’t meeting these adult’s expectations (Grzywacz, 2009; Moen, 2009). For example, in many occupations current policies and practices often were designed for a single breadwinner workforce and in an industrial related economy, (some as early as 50+ years ago - male worker in many if not most cases worked 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., 5 to 6 days per week). These past working policies and practices can be said to be “out of step” with a today’s workforce of both men and women, including single parents and/or dual earners. It can be augured that many workers today want and/or need flexibility and greater control over the duration and timing of their work.
Discuss, in your own and/or observed experience: Tasks: (1) can you make arguments/justification(s) for more flexibility and greater control over the duration and timing of the work schedule for later aged workers, and if so why; and (2) give some basic/simple possible sample guidelines that employers might consider when looking at potential more flexible policies for mid to later life adults in the workforce .
