attempting to perform a task rather than by reading a book or attending a lecture. They multitask, prefer to work alone, accept change readily, and access information at all hours of the day. These work habits are contrary to what older workers have experienced during their careers. To blend the cultures, managers must devise methods of fostering coexistence.

Executive summary Between 2000 and 2008 the number of child labourers worldwide fell by some 30 million. Notwithstanding this progress, at the end of that period there were still over 215 million child labourers, and over half of them were doing hazardous work.
