The conducted research aimed at answering the question of the attitude towards employing academic teachers over 55 years presented by the academic community in Poland and outside Poland (on the example of a Greek university).

The research has shown positive attitudes of academic teachers over 55 towards each other, their work, and employing other academic teachers.
