Abstract
In this work we try to reflect on the influence of workers' ageing on the prevention of risks at work. The article starts by pinpointing the demographic context and the relationship existing between ageing and the generation of risks at work.
We then go on to deal with the first manifestation of this in the form of reactive, non-preventive regulations, the influence of riskiness and the excessively arduous nature of certain activities; the reduction in ordinary retirement age pursuant to section 161 bis of the General Law governing Social Security (LGSS).
Lastly, we analyse the expressly preventive regulations that can govern ageing both on an international and internal level, in this case via the regulation of sensitive workers in accordance with section 25.1 of the Law governing Risks at Work (LPRL). And we finish by referring to the possibilities for collective bargaining on this issue.
