Abstract
Digitalization is a phenomenon that is spreading day by day on a global scale. Both physiological decline and dissonances in education and professional experience strengthen the possibility of excluding the elder in the new economic and social order where digitalization has accelerated. In a period of 10 years if Industry 4.0 is taken as a milestone, and 5-6 years if Society 5.0 is taken as a milestone, it is natural to experience insufficiencies in the awareness of elder employees although there is a rapid transformation process. Therefore, problems may arise in the possibility of the surveys to be conducted for the addressee to constitute a healthy indicator. It can be argued that, in studies that are based on the analysis of secondary data, the differential feature of basic parameters such as internet usage, which is very common like literacy, will remain limited.
