ABSTRACT

Currently, the rapid population aging has posed a series of challenges for economic and social development in China. Facing with these problems, the Chinese government planned to formulate policies to progressive delay the retirement age, and regarded the "positive response to population aging" as one of the long-term development strategy. But in reality, with China's per capita life expectancy and human capital cycle "double extended", "old before getting rich" makes re-employment of the elderly population become very urgent. Based on China's current rapid population aging, this paper analyzed the current situation of China's re-employment of the elderly population, and proposed some effective countermeasures to support elderly re-employment.
