AnnotationShunichi Miyanaga, CEO of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd (MHI), one of the world's leading industrial firms, argues the case for viewing Japan's ageing population as a great opportunity for the world of business and work. He points out that as increasing numbers of workers reach retirement age, many companies will face a loss of skills and experience. In an effort to plug this skills shortage, MHI has established MHI Executive Experts, a new company for workers who are at or above retirement age. The company recruits various veteran MHI employees including engineers, managers and others who are despatched to provide support on the company's current projects and businesses. (JL).
