Australia has one of the world's most rapidly aging workforces and will inevitably experience labor shortages as a result. It is therefore necessary to examine factors that promote ability to work among aging workers in order to sustain a healthy aging workforce. The aim of this study was to investigate the direct and indirect effects of primary- and secondary-level organizational factors on work ability. A total of 306 employees participated in an online survey for this cross-sectional study. The results demonstrated that organizational nurturance (culture) and vocational strain indirectly predicted work ability, with work satisfaction mediating these relationships. Findings are discussed within the context of strategies for promoting work ability for all workers and retaining aging workers.
