What is it about?
We develop and test a novel instrument for measuring successful aging at work, understood as the employee's growth across the working life cycle. This measure can be used by both employees and employers for the purposes of individual and organizational development.

Why is it important?
The aging of the world’s population has become a grand societal challenge, which requires an urgent response from researchers, professionals, and the wider society. One way to respond to this challenge is by supporting individuals in sustaining longer and healthier working lives, that is, age successfully.

To fill this gap, we develop and test in three consecutive samples a two-dimensional successful aging at work scale.
