WHAT DOES AGE PROVE IN A WORK ORGANIZATION?

Abstract

This study aims to understand and analyze the performance differences within a workgroup divided into three age groups. The age groups are categorized as workers aged 24 to 33 years in one group, workers aged 34 to 44 years in another group, and workers aged over 44 years in a third group. The test results indicate differences in the average values of the three groups, with the highest average performance score found in the group of workers aged over 44 years. The hypothesis testing shows that there is no significant difference between the three groups in this study. This means that, theoretically, the three groups have the same level of performance, with no significant differences, despite the arithmetic differences in the average performance scores of these groups. The lack of differentiating factors can be analyzed as a potential lack of high motivation from both individuals and external factors within the organization, possibly due to monotonous work planning factors, in individual work planning. The first hypothesis is rejected; there is no difference in performance based on age. The second hypothesis is rejected; workers in group one do not have better performance than the other groups.
