The bill to obligate the mandatory retirement at the age of 60 passed the National Assembly in late April, 2013 and awaits implementation in 2016. In transition to the low-birth and aging society, the discussions on aging human resources have witnessed a turning point with the revised bill. With less than 2 or 3 years to prepare for and settle down the new retirement age system, we also have to maintain and upgrade the competitiveness and productivity of enterprises. Thus, we have to mobilize the wisdom and efforts for a win-win game between management and labor. This study sheds light first on the in-and-out realities faced by the aging society and then on how much our society (government, enterprises, trade unions, etc.) has prepared up till now for the foreseen new retirement age and what path we will have to take in the coming years. In particular, In seeking a paradigm shift for the aging human resources in our enterprises, this study tries to present a general direction upon the two poles of labor management and human resource management system.
