Article Ageless Wisdom: a Cross-Cultural Study on Enhancing Life Satisfaction Through Skills Promotion Among Older Adults(Ani Publishing, 2024-04-30) Adele Gaia De Stefani; Burçin Önder; Kaygın, Hüseyin; Ulus, İhsan Çağatay; Ratkowska-Pasikowska, Justyna; Ertürk, Nesrin Oruç; Onder, Burcin; Stefani, Adele Gaia De; Bulun, Sebnem NigarThis article explores the pervasive issue of ageism and its detrimental effects on the elderly population. Ageism or the prejudice and discrimination against older adults based on their age, can have significant impact on their well-being and life satisfaction. However, the article also delves into the potential positive effects of continuous learning on reducing ageism and enhancing the life satisfaction of the elderly. As a proactive approach, lifelong learning presents an opportunity for the elderly to challenge stereotypes, remain engaged in society, and foster personal growth. This study highlights how training and educational programs can empower older adults, instilling a sense of purpose and accomplishment, leading to a more fulfilled and satisfying life in their later years. The main purpose was to investigate how continuous learning affects the lives and life satisfaction perception of elderly people over the age of 65 from Greece, Hungary, Italy, Poland and Turkey after one week and 25 hours of technology, art and psychotherapy trainings that are believed to support them in every aspect of life.Article Citation - Scopus: 2Protecting Older Workers' Health in Legal Terms Comparatively European Eacquis in the Light of Ilo R162(Gunes Kitabevi Ltd Sti, 2020-09-30) Sisli, ZeynepIntroduction: This article discusses the specific laws, regulations, and recommendations aimed at protecting older workers against occupational accidents and illnesses and whether they are properly regulated by Turkish legislation compared with the European Union acquis, in order to protect older workers against discrimination, and to make their working conditions more appropriate for their ages, in the light of International Labour Organization Recommendation No. 162. Materials and methods: This conceptual article was prepared by evaluating the legal framework for protection of the occupational health and safety of older Turkish workers, through a comparison of Turkish law, International Labour Organization Recommendation No. 162, and the European Union acquis, and consideration of the facts reported in the relevant literature, using the document analysis method. Results and Conclusion: Neither Turkish labour law nor European Union acquis include sufficient regulation to protect the health and safety of older workers at work. Older workers' health should be protected specifically by social law, without driving them to poverty. Changes in the regulation of working conditions that would be supported by the social security system have been proposed to protect the health of older workers as a specially protected group.
