LIFETIME aimed to create age-appropriate working and development conditions for all employees in order to secure long term job satisfaction and motivation. Erste Bank and Sparkassen are among the largest banks in Austria. By demographic change, the company is affected in two ways.

Secondly, the clientele is aging as a whole - and thus potentially alter the structure of demand.
