Is it really an occupational crisis when people reach middle age?

In recent years, the phenomenon of workplace crisis of middle-aged people has attracted much attention. According to a survey of pulse data, 58.5% of people in the workplace really feel the crisis of middle age, and this feeling is enhanced with the increase of working years. Among them, 76.9% of people over 4 1 year-old said that they had experienced a crisis in the middle-aged workplace, and the proportion of people over 45 was higher. Most of the causes of the crisis in the middle-aged workplace stem from the choices made by employers based on cost adjustment. When the company's profits are challenged, in order to save labor costs, new employees are used to replace old employees. Because most of the new employees have low salary and high enthusiasm, while the old employees have high psychological expectations of salary and position, it is often difficult to accept demotion and salary reduction when the industry sinks, the employer's business shrinks or there are major changes, and it is easy for the employer to "get rid of the burden".

In addition, middle-aged workers over the age of 35 have exceeded the golden working age, and some workers are indifferent to their work, confused about their career plans, and their knowledge reserves can't keep up with the changes of the times, which is also the cause of the crisis.

In the labor dispute cases related to the middle-aged workplace crisis, most of the workers involved in litigation have worked for more than 10 years, and their annual salary is more than 500,000 yuan. They often hold the positions of middle-level and above managers, have certain knowledge background and communication skills, and are in a relatively strong position in the game with employers, with relatively rational rights protection and relatively high success rate.
