Abstract

Abstract: Currently, enterprises face changes in the labour structure, determined by demographic factors. Population ageing in Europe is a relevant issue that has to be carefully analysed to be prepared and adapt European aspects and conditions to today's generation. In light of this, the present paper proposes a framework as a first attempt to support enterprises in their management of the workforce age increasing average from a resilient perspective. The framework was built based on three constituent capacities of enterprise resilience: preparedness, adaptive, recovery capacities. For each one, research macro-areas and enterprise features were identified. Further research lines will focus on validating this framework and on extending its development to include specific actions.
