This article intends to make a contribution to the critical discussion of the active ageing policy. The analysis undertaken allows to conclude that there are different conceptions of active ageing, that the general idea of "ageing actively" has a limited theoretical support, and that the ideal of "being productive", which is present in the different conceptions of active ageing, has a weak fit in the reality. It is also possible to conclude that the active ageing policy has several potential positive effects, such as the possibility to promote the empowerment of the older people, but it has "ageism" as a serious obstacle, to which we can add several risks, for example the risks of moralism, policy ethnocentrism and unrealism.

Este estudo procura contribuir para a definição do conceito de trabalhador mais velho, através da identificação das idades que definem esta fase da vida. Explora ainda a possibilidade de este conceito ser definido com recurso a uma linha imaginária que recuará no tempo de modo a proteger a auto- -estima e auto-imagem positiva. Participaram neste estudo 177 pessoas, com idades compreendidas entre os 17 e os 76 anos. A idade do trabalhador mais velho foi concebida como um intervalo, em que o limite inferior e superior foi aferido através de um questionário desenvolvido para o efeito. Os resultados apontam para que o trabalhador mais velho seja uma pessoa entre os 53 e os 65 anos de idade, sendo que essa categoria é atribuída a pessoas que se encontram numa fase transitória, perto do final da sua vida activa e da entrada na reforma. Os resultados mostram, por um lado uma correlação positiva baixa entre a idade dos participantes e o limite inferior da idade do "trabalhador mais velho", e por outro, uma correlação negativa baixa entre a idade dos participantes e a amplitude do intervalo. Estes resultados sugerem que idade de entrada na categoria de trabalhador mais velho é definida por uma linha imaginária que vai recuando mediante o avanço da idade de quem a atribui.
