P.lipai@tut.byMinsk City Institute for the Development of Education15122022261727429032022Copyright © 2022,2022Population aging is a natural and irreversible process associated with the development of the economic well-being of society. According to the World Population Prospects, by 2050, one in six people on the planet will be over 65 years old. Studying the problems of workers of pre-retirement and retirement age will make it possible to manage the processes of stigmatization and painlessly prepare people for a new social status in society. Based on the results of the work, the author concluded that when developing public health measures on the problem of aging today, it is important, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, to take into account individual and social approaches that will help the recovery and adaptation of older people in society.population agingpotential of senior citizensstigmatizationESG principlesmanagement of social processesstrategies on aging and healthстарение населенияпотенциал пожилых гражданстигматизацияпринципы ESGуправление социальными процессамистратегии по вопросам старения и здоровья1.Липай Т.
