<description xml:lang='en' descriptionType='Abstract'><p>Purpose: Identifying the motivational factors for the continuity of work and professional harassment targeting the elderly, with extensive professional experience, in terms of dedication to work. Design / Methodology / Approach: The research displays the cause-effect relationship between the dedication to the work done and the professional risks characteristic of the field of activity. Findings:Long-term professional activity with psycho-emotional involvement is associated with a low level of intellectual and functional dysfunction.Doing work with dedication and professionalism involves a high level of empathy.Performing laborious work tasks with dedication can generate anxiety as a result of not achieving the expected result.Occupational hazards that may occur in the elderly, working in the medical and educational field have become, in part, common during the Sars-CoV2 pandemic.The lackof financial stability of employees in the Republic of Moldova requires older people to work in high-risk conditions. Research limitations/Implications: Access to information on the elderly in the medical field is limited, as institutions operate on a special basis.It is proposed to conduct a comparative study of the interconnection between dedication and occupational risks, in the elderly in urban and rural areas of the Republic of Moldova. Practical implications:The applicability of the research results derives from the findings obtained, and the data stated could serve as a benchmark in:Development of strategies for the development of social assistance programs for the elderly.Identifying opportunities for inclusion in the workplace according to psycho-emotional and physiological needs.Increasing the level of socialization and communication, through mentoring activities in partnership with elderly/experienced employees and young specialists. Originality/Value: Identify the tangential points of motivation and risk between various areas of work, accessible to the elderly, and obtain up-to-date information in this regard in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.</p></description>
