The Benefits and Challenges of Supernumerary Employment Beyond Retirement Age
Supernumeraryship refers to a situation where an employee is retained in a job or position beyond the regular retirement age or tenure, often on a temporary or contract basis. This can be due to various reasons such as lack of succession planning, shortage of skilled workers, or to fill a specific skill gap. Supernumerary employees are often paid a higher salary than their younger counterparts and may have more responsibilities and workload.
Example: The company had several supernumerary employees in their 60s and 70s who were still working due to the lack of young talent in the industry.
Synonyms: seniority, experience, maturity, wisdom, age.
Antonyms: junior, novice, newcomer, inexperienced, youthful.
