Abstract

The age of a person denotes that how long he has been alive on this earth. Out of that number of years, except the early years of his birth that is around five years, all the rest of his life he is learning and moulding himself towards all the situations and events he comes across. This paper studies the effect of age of a person on his attitude in workplace. Data is collected through an instrument called questionnaire with a random sample size of 468 across the country. Few parameters such as attitude towards efficiency, risk-taking nature and self-image portrait are considered under employees’ attitude and are analysed against the age of the respondents. The data is analysed with suitable statistical tools and techniques. The results are interpreted aptly making some meaning sense out of them. It is observed that with the age of the person, the attitude of the person towards workplace changes a lot. This research can further be extended towards career planning and succession planning in corporate world.
