This article reviews the literature on intergenerational conflicts with labor force groups and analyzed the Canadian labor force situation. A practical work force policy is possible. Generation X is defined as "baby boomers" whose large cohort size and placement meant economic disadvantage and limited opportunities to establish careers. Baby boomers were born during 1947-66 in Canada and 1946-64 in the US. "Baby busters" were born in the 1960s and 1970s and experienced better labor market options. New issues in the literature on the obligation to care for the elderly focus on the young being deprived of options because of the allocation of societal resources to the elderly. Intergenerational equity issues within the labor force but not over social welfare emerged in Canada. The complaint was that boomers took all the jobs blocked promotions slowed the rate of income growth and promoted credentialism in the labor market. However all ages experienced rising unemployment. Many boomers experienced disadvantage at the entry point. The most serious impact of economic disadvantage was experienced by Generation Xers who were late boomers and early busters. The disadvantage meant later marriage age and standard of living adjustments. Solutions are in training and education work and job sharing early retirement periodic leaves of absence and compulsory and voluntarily reduced workweeks. Survey findings suggest that supervisors and the organizational culture need to support workers and family-friendly policies. Savings from flex-time can be reinvested in securing workers instead of downsizing during downturns.
