Major new trends such as increasing diversity, longer life expectancies, the Baby Boom Echo, employees demanding greater trust and higher purpose in their work environment, and new household types including same-sex partners, and Mr. Moms are forcing organisations to reconsider their human resources strategies. The New Workforce outlines the implications of these crucial new developments, considering issues such as recruitment, retention, compensation, work schedules, benefits, retirement, and many others. It asks important questions including: what should the mandatory retirement age be? how flexible should companies be about schedules and off-site work made possible by technology? what new types of compensation should we consider? and what can we do to ensure good communication among five generations working together?
