Abstract:
This study aims to examine the workforce performances and workplace management strategies of employees who have been diagnosed at the early stage of Alzheimer's disease. Neurodegenerative diseases, especially Alzheimer's disease, can affect the efficiency of the employees in the workplace by causing decline in cognitive, motor and emotional functions. Early diagnosis is critical to manage these effects on labor force. Suitable management strategies for individuals with early stage Alzheimer's disease can help maintain performance at work and contribute to organizational sustainability. In this context, strategies such as flexible working hours, task changes and supportive training programs can be applied with early diagnosis. The study emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease both individually and organizational. It also reveals the necessity of employers and managers to take appropriate supportive measures for employees with Alzheimer's disease in order to manage the effects on the labor force.
Keywords: Alzheimer's disease, neurodegenerative diseases, early diagnosis, labor, performance management, workplace strategies, employee support, organizational sustainability.
