[ (Gesell, 2010) ] The 78 million Baby Boomers in the workforce now have long been accustomed to being the biggest generation with the most cultural clout, but they will inevitably have to cede the workplace (and society) to the Millennials, who are entering the workforce en mass now, and will be hitting their mid-career stride as the Baby Boomer generation retires. Managing the interaction and transition between the influence of these two massive generations will largely fall to Generation X, which is by size a smaller generation, but is sandwiched between the two massive groups, and is the generation to that the Baby Boomers can better relate to, and the Millennials will look to as more experienced elders. In “Generations at Work” [ (Ron Zemke, 2013) ], the guiding principle for leading intergenerational groups is The Titanium Rule. It is a variation of the Golden Rule “Do unto others as you would have them do to you.” The variation is a caveat that requires reflecting on the behavioral etiquette of an entire generation. The Titanium Rule is “Do unto others, keeping their preferences in mind”.

Explain the change, if any in the price of babysitting, and in both the amount of babysitting demanded and supplied, giving your reasons for these changes. There is the precise reverse result happening now. The baby population is back to normal; but there is an excess of potential babysitters. This will generate very good fees as the teenagers try to trade their babysitting packages.
Another main reason is the simple fact people are marrying later for many reasons, more because of the change in attitudes towards education and religion (seclurisation). It doesn’t help that the countrys ecnomy is in decline and the price of weddings not only was expensive enough but they are also getting dearer to match the current cost of living. From 1838 until.

HR400: Employment and Staffing | Employment and Staffing | Unit 1 Project | | Amy Johnson | 8/7/2012 | | According to United States of Department of Labor, over the next decade there will be some important changes to the demographic trends within the workforce. With a combination of the ups and downs of birthrates over the past 70 years and immigrates making up a sizable part of the population growth.

Also, the current employees who are making the current minimum wage amount ($8.25) will enjoy the dramatic increase to $10.65. There are managers and supervisors who believe that by paying employees a substantial amount of money for the job they do on a daily basis, the overall work environment will receive a bump in morale. Also, citizens whom reside in the state of Illinois tend to think that the term minimum wage is just for young teens in high school or retirees; but what they fail to realize is that a lot of middle class families attain minimum wage jobs and people graduating from college eventually take on a minimum wage until they are able to attain a job in their career field. To many of those in the low to middle class family income bracket in Illinois, increasing the minimum wage would definitely put more money into their pockets therefore allowing them to provide for their families more than the usual. “A survey was taken in Illinois to determine the age brackets of those that receive minimum wage pay, the information that was found was very interesting.

Meeting the Needs of the Aging Population The aging population of the people born between 1946 and1964 are what we call the Baby Boomers population. Within the next twenty years this population is expected to increase 79% in the number of people over the age of 65. (Shultz, 2010) Many people of this population are seniors who live by themselves and require a little help with their every day needs. These needs include help with a little house cleaning, grocery shopping, or just the need of remaining healthy. There are many who just cannot really get around like they would like.
