The constraints are twofold: demographic and financial. The Carnegie Inquiry in Greet Britain, as well as the various studies undertaken or supported by the Genva Association in the UK, France, Germany, the USA and Japan, have all established one fact beyond doubt: if older workers are to remain competitive, productive, motivated and flexible, they will need continuing training until the end of career. Continuing education and training, while by no means the solution to all problems facing older workers, will doubtless prove to be the key to older people remaining professionally integrated and active in the communityEn: Geneva papers on risk and insurance : issues and practice. - Geneva : The Geneva Association, 1976- = ISSN 1018-5895. - Tomo 19 Número 4 - 1994, p. 481-4891.
