Funded Activity Summary

Measuring and managing the intellectual capital of the ageing workforce. Many employees are retiring prematurely, placing increasing strains on the social security system. Moreover, their accumulated competencies, expertise, and organisational corporate wisdom (intellectual capital) may be lost. There is a growing recognition that much of the wealth of organisations resides in their intellectual capital. This project will develop a methodology to measure intellectual capital and will increase understanding of how companies can retain it. Potential long-term benefits include more efficient management of intellectual capital and enhanced retention of mature workers, with consequent savings in social security. The project will be benchmarked against similar developments in other countries.
