However, some decides to retire in advance even they have the work ability. With the deteriorating“Shoshika” and population aging, the shortage in labour force is expectable, which may cause the waste in human resources, unstable society and economy, and an aggravating fiscal burden. This study aims to explore the difference of the competitive force between middle and elderly age group and other age groups. The soft variables, competitive force, re-employment opportunity, and re-employment willingness, are used in scenario simulation; and a system dynamics model is built by secondary data to analyze the interrelationship between population growth, middle and elderly age labours supply, enterprise labour and employment, government subsidty expentirures, and macroeconomic sectors. The secondary data retrieved from the job capacity self-assessment research conducted by Coucil of Labour Affairs in 2010 was used for descripitive statistic analysis, t-test, and one-way ANOVA. Then a dynamics simulation analysis was implemented under variant scenarios. The results of this study include: 1. A significant difference between middle-and-elderly and young-and-middle employees is observed; 2. People with university degree have higher job ability; 3. Urban/rural differences has an significant effect on labour job ability; 4. Middle and elderly age labours in Taiwan is rather a complex dynamical system; 5. Expected wages adjustment could enforce competitive force. In conclusion, middle and elderly age employees should keep improving competitive force to have a better effect with government employment projects.
