Post-basic education training, age and gender of healthcare workers for elderly patients in Germany and Canada: A comparison.
BACKGROUND This study compares Canadian and German healthcare workers employment status and wages based on age, gender, and educational training. The German and Canadian healthcare systems are rarely compared, that if such a comparison between the two countries is available, can provide an insight of health workers employment status and how that might affect the wellbeing of elderly. OBJECTIVES The study investigates the relation of age, gender and post-basic training with annual employment and income of health care workers in Canada and Germany. METHODS Secondary data on age, gender, post-basic education training, employment status and average monthly wages/salary was obtained from the German Socioeconomic Panel and the Canadian Survey of Labor and Income Dynamics data. The German dataset comprised 571 healthcare workers, including 219 nurses, 231 elder carers and 121 care assistants. The Canadian dataset comprised 2,580 healthcare workers, including 947 nurses, 493 elder carers and 1,140 care assistants. RESULTS Primarily, there was a strong relationship between post-basic training and wages for both the Canadian and German samples among elder carers and care assistants. Older healthcare workers (46 years old and above) were generally employed, and age had no predictive power on annual labor earnings. This difference in age was significant among the Canadian than the German nurses. Post-basic training had a significant relation with annual earnings and monthly wages in both the Canadian and German samples. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that the socio-demographics of healthcare workers as age, gender and advanced training are associated with their employment opportunities, financial rewards, and better career opportunities. The relationship between demographic variables helps understand the relation of healthcare workers employment dispositions and how it might improve the quality of life of older people in nursing homes, hospitals and elderly private homes in Canada and Germany.
期刊介绍：
Cognition, Technology & Work focuses on the practical issues of human interaction with technology within the context of work and, in particular, how human cognition affects, and is affected by, work and working conditions.
The aim is to publish research that normally resides on the borderline between people, technology, and organisations. Including how people use information technology, how experience and expertise develop through work, and how incidents and accidents are due to the interaction between individual, technical and organisational factors.
The target is thus the study of people at work from a cognitive systems engineering and socio-technical systems perspective.
The most relevant working contexts of interest to CTW are those where the impact of modern technologies on people at work is particularly important for the users involved as well as for the effects on the environment and plants. Modern society has come to depend on the safe and efficient functioning of a multitude of technological systems as diverse as industrial production, transportation, communication, supply of energy, information and materials, health and finance.
