The third section addresses the relationship between older workers and technological innovation with a focus on technological innovation as an opportunity and a challenge.

Il terzo paragrafo si concentra sulla relazione tra lavoratori anziani e innovazione tecnologica. Quest’ultima può essere tanto un’opportunità, quanto una sfida.Il quarto paragrafo indaga, sulla base di dati EUROSTAT, il livello delle qualificazioni digitali dei lavoratori anziani e quali siano le difficoltà che essi incontrano nell’avviare percorsi di formazione e di riqualificazione professionale.
