description Reviews the data on changing demographic trends and predictions about their implications for human resource management (HRM) practices in the 1990s. Reports the results of a survey of 176 senior managers/personnel specialists, which assessed their knowledge of the demographic trends, and their attitudes to HRM practices which are claimed to alleviate the effects of these trends. The results reveal a considerable degree of ignorance about the nature of the demographic trends, and varying attitudes towards the importance of the practices associated with their alleviation.
