How is digitalisation reshaping work for older workers across Europe? This open access volume offers a comprehensive examination of the challenges and opportunities that arise as technology transforms the labour market. Bringing together leading scholars from across Europe, the book provides fresh, evidence-based insights into working experiences of older workers in a digitalised labour market.

Across 15 chapters, the contributors draw on diverse methodologies and data from multiple countries to explore critical themes sorted into the following thematic sections:

  • Theoretical foundations and inequalities: Understanding how digitalisation intersects with age, gender, and sustainable career trajectories.
  • Policy and media representations: Examining how regulations and public narratives depict the situation of older workers.
  • Digital practices and health implications: Investigating the impact of technology on communication, well-being, and workplace dynamics.
  • Sector-specific perspectives: Illustrating experiences of older workers in education, social care, and healthcare.

This anthology serves as an essential resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners dealing with the complexities of ageing and work in the digital era. It not only maps current trends but also shows possible ways to support more inclusive and sustainable workplaces for all generations.

Clary Krekula has a background as a Professor of Sociology and is currently working as a Professor of Social Work at Linnaeus University, Sweden. Her research focuses on age (inequalities) as well as aging from intersectional and organizational perspectives. She has extensive experience serving as an editor for both international and national anthologies and for special issues in international journals.


Daniela Şoitu is a social sciences specialist and a Professor at the Department of Sociology, Social Work, and Human Resources from Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iaşi, Romania. Her main research focuses on late adulthood from interdisciplinary and interinstitutional perspectives; she has studied access to social and healthcare services, well-being throughout life, personal and systemic vulnerabilities, and support services using the life course theory, ecosystemic, and sustainable perspectives.


Martin Lakomý is an Assistant Professor at Mendel University in Brno, Czechia. He employs quantitative methods to examine the situation of older adults in intergenerational family settings and the digitalised labour market, as well as their connection to value changes. A large part of his research consists of comparative studies on European macro-regions, so he enjoys gaining experience in cross-national collaboration.
