Abstract: | To review current occupational health (OH) approaches aimed at maintaining the health and workability of older workers. A literature review was undertaken to identify articles onOHinterventions focused on maintaining the
health of older workers (published since 2000). The inclusion criteria included studies that reported
interventions aimed specifically at older workers. A limited number of interventions targeting older workers were identified. A second literature search
was therefore conducted that identified types of workplace interventions that, if used with older workers,
may benefit their health, well-being and workability. Very few OH interventions have addressed the health and workability of older workers and there is
considerable scope for developing OH provision, which accounts for the needs of the older workforce. |
