| Tiivistelmä: | The authors examine wheter the elements of the employment relationship that predict commitment and willingness to change companies vary significantly with age. Using a sample of over 3000 technical professionals from six large companies, the authors find that in comparison to those under 30, satisfaction with job security is more strongly related to the commitment of more senior worker (ages 31-45) and those over age 45) and to their desire to remain with their companies. In contrast, satisfaction with work-life balance is more stronly related to commitment of those under age 30 than those over 30. Also, for the under-30s, satisfaction with opportunities to develop technical skills and pay linked to individual performance has a stronger negative relationship with willingness to change companies than for those over 45. |
