Current Affairs (Term 1 Wk 4)
Q: Age and experience are important to the workforce in any country. Discuss with relevant examples how this statement is true.
In my opinion, experience can be told by how much a person knows, how many times he has done something particular and his age.
Older workers are usually more experienced as they have lived longer and know how to solve problems more than younger people.
Older people are also not as particular as what job they have as to compared to young people. Older people too are less irritated or annoyed when an obstacles blocks their path.
But why are many companies still employing younger people then ??
Young people nowadays are faster though less experienced and hardworking as older people. But, they are mostly better educated and usually, Newly grads are usually what companies are eyeing on as their memory is still fresh. Older people are also more forgetful.
Young people too can solve problems very quickly although sometimes rash.
Younger people are mostly preferred still in jobs, but companies should not try to ignore the old people. They can be trained too, further more, they have experience are willing to do some jobs. Thus, companies should try to employ both old and young workers to have a balanced amount of work force such that everyone has a specific and appropriate title in their job. Old people are also more suitable for higher post as they know how to make wise decisions.
In my point of view, I find that now, we should not look at a person’s age to determine whether he or she would be a suitable worker, but how hardworking, experienced and whether they would do well in the company or not.
