  - <jats:p>Due to demographic changes and their impact on the labor market, attracting
    and retaining older employees plays a decisive role in organizations’ ability
    to maintain their workforce. This requires organizations to publicly display a
    work environment that fits the particular preferences of this target group. Drawing
    on lifespan theories, we examine how the link between employee preferences and
    employees’ likelihood of recommending their employer to others varies by age.
    To address the lack of integration between the literatures on workforce aging
    and employer branding, we take an empirical approach analyzing 292,429 numeric
    and unedited text-based employee reviews from an employer rating platform. Our
    findings reveal that relationship-building, fair and appreciative supervisor behavior,
    positive interactions with older colleagues, and location-flexible, efficient
    working conditions play pivotal roles in shaping older employees’ likelihood of
    recommending their employer. Although these age-related interaction effects are
    significant, they remain small, suggesting broadly compatible preferences between
    older and younger employees. We also demonstrate that these findings are robust
    across gender and different income groups. Finally, we provide tangible recommendations
    for the incorporation of lifespan theories in the employer branding context and
    highlight the value of using platform data for future research.</jats:p>@eng
