Summary/Abstract: This publication constitutes the final report of the research carried out in the years 2014-2017 within the framework of a research project financed by the National Science Centre grant “W poszukiwaniu modelu przeciwdziałania bezrobociu wśród osób starszych – analiza prawna”, UMO-2013/09/09/B/HS5/04137. The main goal of the research project was an attempt to present a model set of initiatives and legal measures that should be taken in order to reduce the phenomenon of unemployment among the elderly. These investigations were to be based, and this was the case, on the examination of the legal regulations of selected European countries. The relevant regulations of Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, the Netherlands, Lithuania, Germany, Slovakia and Hungary were finally subjected to the research process. Polish legal solutions were also the subject of the research process. The scope of the study encompassed legal institutions which were used in a given country to reduce or eliminate unemployment among the elderly; where it was justified, general regulations concerning unemployment reduction were presented.
